Protect Your Children
Have you ever looked at your child’s well-visit checklist and wondered why there were so many vaccinations? Simply put, vaccinating your child protects them from disease. Many conditions that could affect their health and even threaten their lives can be prevented by following a vaccination schedule that keeps them up-to-date and healthy.
Keep Your Community Safe
Every day, you walk among people in your city who you know and trust. However, if you don’t get immunized, you might spread disease among them and cause illness in your community. Likewise, if they got immunized as well, cases of flu, Covid-19, and other conditions would be far rarer.
However, not everyone does or can get vaccinated. For instance, some people are allergic to vaccines and simply cannot get adequately protected. By keeping your child's vaccinations up to date, you can minimize disease spread and protect those people who can’t get immunized.
Reduce or Eliminate Diseases
At the turn of the 20th Century, thousands of children and adults suffered from polio and other diseases that left them with severe, lifelong problems. These days, almost nobody gets polio and experiences this problem. How did this happen? By vaccinating enough children that the disease didn’t spread to future generations and cause more heartache.
That said, such conditions may still exist in the wild and must be treated with utmost respect. Unfortunately, people who don’t get vaccinated against these conditions might develop and spread them without meaning to do it. Therefore, regular vaccinations are an essential step in keeping this generation and the next safe from unnecessarily harmful illnesses.
