- Immunizations prevent infectious diseases, save lives, and are one of the most effective ways to stay healthy.
- Vaccines are responsible for the disappearance of many serious diseases that were once common in this country. It is rare to see a case of polio, diphtheria, tetanus, rubella (German measles), or HIB.
- Immunizations are still needed because diseases such as Pertussis (whooping cough), mumps, and measles are increasing among unvaccinated people in this country.
- Vaccinations aren't just for kids. As you get older, or if you get sick, start a new job, or travel the world, you may need vaccines that you never needed before.
- Vaccinations are carefully monitored. Vaccines are safe and effective.
Vaccines are cost effective and prevent disease and early death.
Jennifer Lopez recorded this announcement about the importance of pertussis (whooping cough) vaccinations.
