For Adults

Did you know that certain vaccines are recommended for adults? Take this quiz to find out which vaccines YOU may need. By protecting yourself, you’re protecting the ones around you.

Some adults incorrectly assume that the vaccines they received as children will protect them for the rest of their lives. Generally this is true, except that:

• ·        Some adults were never vaccinated as children
• ·        Newer vaccines were not available when some adults were children
• ·        Immunity can begin to fade over time

As we age, we become more susceptible to serious disease caused by common infections (i.e. Influenza, Pneumococcus)
