Immunizations
Immunizations protect us from the potentially devastating effects of vaccine-preventable diseases. The germs and viruses that cause vaccine-preventable diseases still exist and threaten communities every day. Vaccines have dramatically reduced the number of people who get these diseases and reduced the potential effects of such diseases. Please see Diseases and Vaccines.
