Give It A Shot: Stay Up-to-Date on Immunizations

Why Immunize?
Immunizations stop disease in its tracks – preventing illness and saving millions of lives every year. They’re proven to be one of the best ways to protect yourself, your family, and those around you from infectious disease.
Even though some diseases such as polio and rubella are now rare due to vaccinations, it’s still important to continue immunizing until they are completely eliminated.
You can rest assured knowing that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) take many steps to make sure that vaccinations are safe and effective.
