What is Vaccination and Immunization?
Vaccination and immunization are important ways to stop diseases from spreading and keep people healthy. Vaccines help the body's defense system make antibodies, which protect against certain diseases. When you get vaccinated, your body learns to fight off diseases without you getting sick from them. This lowers the chance of getting sick and spreading diseases to others. Our team stays informed about the newest vaccines to make sure our patients get the best protection possible.
