IMMUNIZATION FOR CHILDREN

Immunizations for Children
IMMUNIZATION FOR CHILDREN

Newborns, babies, and toddlers are constantly being exposed to germs whether it’s from their parents, other adults, brothers and sisters, or other children. Now that traveling is easier than ever, you and your baby can be exposed to diseases from other countries without your knowledge.

After babies are born, they will have some immunity, which was passed from their mother through the placenta before birth. After a short period of time, this natural immunity goes away.

Immunizations for children help protect infants, children, and adults against many infections that used to be much more common.

  • Examples include tetanus, diphtheria, mumps, measles, pertussis (whooping cough), meningitis, and polio
  • Newer immunizations protect children and adults against other types of meningitis and pneumonia

Many of these infections can cause serious or life-threatening illnesses, and may lead to lifelong disabilities. These illnesses are now rare because of immunizations.

IMMUNIZATION SCHEDULE

The recommended immunization schedule is updated at least every 12 months by organizations such as the American Academy of Pediatrics. Talk to your primary care provider about specific immunizations for you or your child. The current recommendations are available on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website. At every doctor visit, ask about the next recommended immunizations. Immunizations are not only for children. Each year the CDC posts recommended adult immunizations on their website. Go there to learn about tetanus booster shots, the flu shot, hepatitis A and B vaccines, the pneumococcal vaccine, MMR, and immunizations for chickenpox and meningitis.
