What is Immunization?
Immunization (vaccination) is a preventive healthcare measure that strengthens the immune system to recognize and fight specific infections. Vaccines help reduce the risk of serious illness, hospitalization, and long-term complications.
Vaccinations begin at birth and continue through childhood, adolescence, and adulthood to maintain ongoing protection.
Why Immunization is Important
Vaccines protect children from serious diseases such as:
- Measles
- Polio
- Hepatitis
- Diphtheria
- Meningitis
- Whooping cough
Timely vaccination:
- Strengthens natural immunity
- Prevents disease outbreaks
- Reduces community transmission (herd immunity)
- Protects vulnerable individuals
Preventive care during early years plays a crucial role in ensuring healthy growth and development.
