CDC selects Optimoz to support Immunization Registry System
July 15, 2020
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) selects Optimoz to support Virgin Islands Immunization Registry System (VIIRS). Immunization Information Systems (IIS) are confidential, population-based, computerized databases that record all immunization doses administered by participating providers to persons residing within a given geopolitical area. At the point of clinical care, an IIS can provide consolidated immunization histories for use by a vaccination provider in determining appropriate client vaccinations. At the population level, an IIS provides aggregate data on vaccinations for use in surveillance and program operations, and in guiding public health action with the goals of improving vaccination rates and reducing vaccine-preventable disease.
In 1997, President Clinton ordered the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) “to start working with the states on an integrated immunization registry system.” As a result, an Initiative on Immunization Registries was undertaken by the National Vaccine Advisory Committee (NVAC). A Workgroup was formed to develop a plan to facilitate and coordinate a nationwide network of community-based and state-based immunization registries. To accomplish the presidential directive to HHS, the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases (NCIRD) developed its IIS Strategic Plan.
Optimoz will help the Virgin Islands Department of Health to continue to facilitate its compliance with the CDC NCIRD IIS Strategic Plan by enhancing and maintaining the Virgin Islands’ Immunization Information System (VIIRS). Optimoz will leverage on its expertise in cloud engineering and devops to streamline the operation of the VIIRS in AWS Cloud.

Large language models (LLMs) have taken the tech world by storm, and everyone is rushing to adapt them for their use cases. These adaptations can be in the form of directly using vanilla models, fine-tuning (using algorithms such as PEFT-LoRA), and Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG).
The Double-Edged Sword of Interoperability in Development
In the fast-paced realm of software development, the concept of interoperability serves as both a beacon of progress and a cautionary tale. This principle, which advocates for disparate systems and applications to work seamlessly together, holds the promise of a more integrated and efficient technological ecosystem. However, as with any significant shift in paradigms, it brings with it a set of challenges and concerns, particularly regarding the pace of innovation and the landscape of consumer choices.
