Monitoring and reporting the US COVID-19 vaccination effort.

Immunizations are an important tool to reduce the burden of vaccine preventable diseases and improve population health. High-quality immunization data is essential to inform clinical and public health interventions and respond to outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases. To track COVID-19 vaccines and vaccinations, CDC established an integrated network that included vaccination provider systems, health information exchange systems, immunization information systems, pharmacy and dialysis systems, vaccine ordering systems, electronic health records, and tools to support mass vaccination clinics.
