WHY VACCINATE?

August is Vaccination Awareness Month

On-time vaccination throughout childhood is essential because it helps provide immunity before children are exposed to potentially life-threatening diseases. Vaccines are tested to ensure they are safe and effective for children to receive at the recommended ages.

Learn about vaccines and immunity, what vaccines are made of, and how they are kept safe on this informative CDC vaccinations website.
