National Immunization Awareness Month: Protecting Yourself and Your Community
According to the CDC, vaccinations prevent 2.5 million unnecessary deaths each year globally.
Understanding the Importance of Immunizations
Immunizations are a key component of preventive healthcare. By receiving vaccinations, you are not only protecting yourself but also those around you, particularly those who cannot be vaccinated. National Immunization Awareness Month is a great opportunity to ensure that you’re up to date with your vaccinations.
Immunization Schedule and Common Vaccines
Understanding your immunization schedule can be crucial in protecting your health. Vaccines for influenza, pneumonia, shingles, and other illnesses are vital for different age groups and risk factors.
Tip: Many vaccinations are covered by employee benefits. Reach out to your benefits counselor to learn more about your coverage.
