Summary:
Immunization Schedules (timings) are a key feature to make sure people (especially children) get the right vaccinations, at the right times, and enough of them, so that they are safely covered from diseases.
This visual project will make it easier for clinicians to see how many doses a child/person has had, and what immunizations they are due for.
Context
Immunization “schedules” are like “Timings”: A place’s immunization schedule shows “when a certain immunization is meant to be given, and how many times, after how long of intervals.” These Schedules are often different by country or region.

⚠️ Important Requirements
To do: Review FHIR requirements & considerations / insights https://www.hl7.org/fhir/immunization.html
Configurability. These Schedules are often different by country, state/province, region, or even organization (I know, it’s surprising it’s not the same world-wide!). This means this feature will need to be very configurable.
