Looking for you or your child’s vaccine record?
Vaccines, also called shots or immunizations, are given over a person’s lifetime to keep everyone healthy. The Wisconsin Immunization Registry, also called WIR, allows patients, parents, and guardians of children to view their vaccine record and keep track of their vaccines.
