    What is a Vaccine Information Statement?

    A Vaccine Information Statement (VIS) is a one-page (two-sided) information sheet, produced by CDC. VISs inform vaccine recipients — or their parents or legal representatives — about the benefits and risks of a vaccine. The law requires that VISs given out whenever certain vaccinations are given.

    Why must VISs be used?

    It is a requirement of the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986. Their purpose is to inform vaccine recipients, or parents of children getting vaccines, about the benefits and risks of vaccines.

    When must VISs be given out?

    They must be given out at the time of each vaccination — prior to administration of the vaccine.
