Immunizations
Beaufort County NC Health Department
Keeping your vaccinations up-to-date is important for your health, as well as the health of your family and community. Vaccines can protect people from serious illness and complications from vaccine-preventable diseases, such as measles, chicken pox, influenza, meningitis, HPV, and pertussis.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
Vaccines are one of the greatest success stories in public health. Through use of vaccines, we have eradicated smallpox and nearly eliminated wild polio virus. The number of people who experience the devastating effects of preventable infectious diseases like measles, diphtheria, and whooping cough is at an all-time low.
