Vaccine Education Center at CHOP

The VEC helps people get accurate information to make informed vaccine decisions for themselves and their families. Our videos offer information about vaccines and the diseases they prevent, describe nuanced and more detailed concepts in vaccine science, provide context about immunizations in the broader scope of infectious diseases and the immune system, and answer the most common questions people have about vaccines from infancy through adulthood. 

Subscribe to the VEC channel, so you’re always aware of new videos, like our monthly “Vaccines and Infectious Diseases in the News” series and our “Talking about Vaccines” series — both featuring our director, Dr. Paul Offit. We’ll also share scientifically accurate animations featured as part of our classroom program, the Vaccine Makers Project, and videos about children’s health when it comes to infectious diseases, featuring other colleagues at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. Thanks for joining us!
