Immunizations for All Ages

Many adults don't know that getting immunized is a life-long job. They think shots are for kids. Are you one of them?
Pneumococcal vaccine is recommended one time at age 65. It's also recommended for people under 65 with certain chronic diseases.

All Adults need a Tetanus/Diphtheria booster every 10 years.

Vaccines to guard against Hepatitis A & B are recommended for those at risk.

Measles, Mumps and Rubella vaccine is recommended for those born after 1957 who are not vaccinated.
Chicken Pox or varicella vaccine is recommended for those who have never had the disease.

Please take the time to get your flu shot. Check your local paper for clinics where flu immunizations will be given. Ask your doctor, or be aware of clinics held at local drug stores or grocery stores. Medicare part B will help cover the cost. Protect yourself this holiday season.
