Vaccinations protect you, your family, your community, and the world at large from diseases that can be destructive and even fatal. If it seems unnecessary to safeguard yourself from once lethal illnesses that have since been neutralized, vaccines are the reason for that neutralization! However, destructive bacteria and viruses that can cause illness or death, like measles, meningitis, or whooping cough, still exist. As a result, it is essential to get vaccinated to keep those illnesses neutralized and out of the public. Vaccines are safe and necessary to keep yourself healthy both now and in the future.
