National Immunization Awareness Month

The US Center for Disease Control (CDC) indicates that thousands of Americans become ill each year with diseases that a vaccine can prevent. From the flu to the measles to Hepatitis, the process of immunization allows people to remain safe even when they are exposed to scary, sometimes even deadly, viruses and diseases.

Folks who are particularly at risk of infection, for instance those with COPD or asthma, are especially in need of protection. Immunizations offer the ability for society to fight against diseases through prevention and protection.
