Vaccinations - !! A healthy shot
August is National Awareness Month vaccination, and most likely a cause that people tired of needles would ignore. But vaccinations help prevent dangerous and sometimes deadly diseases.
Like thousands of children are doing to prepare to return to school, adults need to get their plans too to stay protected against serious diseases such as influenza, measles and tuberculosis.
But what vaccinations do I need?
It is important to know what shots you need and when to get them. All age 6 months and older needs to get a vaccine against influenza every year. Other shots work best when they are given at certain ages.
