Vaccinations/Immunizations - Why They Matter
Vaccination has made an enormous contribution to global health. Vaccines are an effective way to prevent serious illness and death. When enough people in an area are vaccinated, it helps stop the spread of disease and protects the entire community.
Getting vaccinated protects you—and those around you.
