Diseases like Polio, Measles, Mumps, Rubella, Pertussis (Whooping Cough), Hepatitis, Meningitis are not a thing of the past. These serious and deadly diseases can be prevented by immunizations. When people are not immunized in a community it creates a crack in the shield of immunity that immunizations provide. When this happens it leaves infants, the elderly, and those with low immunity exposed to dangerous diseases. Simply put: Immunizations Work!
Talk to your doctor or call the Immunizations Clinic at 828-250-5096 with any questions you might have about immunizations or to find vaccination records.
