Vaccines are the cornerstone of preventive medicine. They undergo extensive testing and monitoring before approval, and absolutely safe. Timely vaccines protect you from infectious diseases. Certain vaccinations - such as flu and whooping cough shots - protect your baby in utero and after birth.

 

Vaccines prevent deadly illnesses. Vaccination protects children from a disease like diphtheria, measles, mumps, and pertussis (whooping cough). Failure to vaccinate leaves children and adults vulnerable to diseases, complications or even death.
