Vaccines
Vaccines have been at the forefront of preventing
infectious disease for the past several decades. The use
of vaccines have practically eliminated polio and smallpox
from the United States and drastically reduced the
number of deaths from Measles, H. Influenza, and multiple
other infections.
We strongly encourage the vaccines that are available and recommended by the
American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and the Center for Disease Control. We follow
the schedule as outlined by the AAP.
To help answer questions about the vaccines, why they are used, and safety concerns,
we provide multiple links to reputable web sites. Links are provided below the vaccine
schedule.
