Routine Vaccines: Protecting Health at Every Stage of Life

Vaccines help the body build protection against diseases that can cause serious complications, hospitalization, or even death.

Routine vaccination is important for children, teenagers, adults, and seniors. Staying up to date helps protect you, your family, and the wider community.

Children

Early protection matters most while a child’s immune system is still developing.

Teens & Adults

Booster shots and yearly vaccines help maintain protection as health needs change.

Seniors

Older adults may need added protection against flu, shingles, pneumonia, RSV, and other risks.
