August is National Immunization Awareness Month
We all need immunizations (also called vaccines or shots) to help protect us from serious diseases like measles, diphtheria and rubella. It's also important to know which shots you need and when to get them.
- Everyone age 6 months and older needs a flu shot every year.
- Children age 6 or younger need a variety of shots every year. Talk to your doctor to make sure your kids are caught up on their shots.
- Teenagers also need specific shots. Ask your doctor which ones your teenager needs.
- All adults need a booster shot every 10 years to help protect against tetanus and diphtheria.
For more information, view the national immunization guidelines for children and teenagers before your doctor visit.
