aking sure that your children receive all their
vaccinations on time is one of the most
important things you can do as a parent to
ensure your children's long-term health-as
well as the health of friends, classmates, and others in your
community.
Getting every recommended dose of each vaccine provides
children with the best protection possible. Keep in mind that
there are many opportunities to catch-up on vaccines for
your preteen or teen.
Preteens and teens typically see their doctors or other health
care professionals for physicals before participation in sports,
camping events, travel, and applying to college.
