Vaccines are an important part of a healthy childhood as they protect against many diseases, such as polio, measles, and whooping cough. Make sure your child is properly vaccinated. Vaccines protect your child as well as protects other children and adults in the community that are too young to receive those vaccines or have a weakened immune system.
Don’t forget to have your child vaccinated for human papillomavirus (HPV) when they are 11-12 years old.
This vaccine prevents HPV infections that can cause various types of cancers.
Check out the Winnebago County Health Department
website to see if your children qualify for free vaccines.
