description: This profile sets minimum expectations for the Immunization resource to record, search, and fetch immunization history associated with a patient to promote interoperability and adoption through common implementation.  It identifies which core elements, extensions, vocabularies, and value sets **SHALL** be present in the resource and constrains the way the elements are used when using this profile.  It provides the floor for standards development for specific use cases.
