Abstract
Objective. A primary objective of the Healthy People 2010 initiatives is to increase on-time immunization rates during the first 2 years of life and to decrease racial disparities in coverage. The objective of this study was to determine on-time immunization coverage rates among infants and toddlers stratified by race/ethnicity in a large metropolitan center.Keywords
