pediatric vaccination

Pediatric vaccination is the process of administering vaccines to children to protect them from infectious diseases. Vaccines contain weakened or inactive parts of germs that cause illnesses, which stimulate the immune system to recognize and fight these germs in the future. By vaccinating children, we help prevent the spread of diseases like measles, mumps, and whooping cough, which can be severe in young kids. Vaccinations contribute to herd immunity, protecting not just the vaccinated child but also those who cannot be vaccinated, fostering a healthier community overall. Regular vaccination schedules are provided by health authorities to ensure timely protection.
