Increase Immunity in Our Community!
Vaccines: A Cornerstone of Public Health and Personal Protection
Vaccination isn’t just about personal protection, it’s about community responsibility. When enough people in a population are vaccinated, it creates “herd immunity,” which helps protect those who cannot receive vaccines due to age, health conditions, or other factors. This shared immunity has been crucial in eliminating diseases like smallpox and nearly eradicating others like polio.
You may have a great immune system, but your loved one may have recently been through chemotherapy, or has other health problems that put them at risk. Newborns, especially premature babies, are at risk for many diseases that a healthy adult can manage with no problem, but can be deadly for a baby. Consider getting a vaccine to protect someone you love!
Who can I ask about my vaccines?
Your Doctor, Nurse Practitioner (NP), Physician Assistant (PA), local Pharmacist, and the St. Clair County Health Department are all great resources. Ask them if you need any immunizations. They can print a copy of your MCIR sheet, which shows all the immunizations you have received in the stae of Michigan, and show those vaccines that are due, or recommended, for your age and personal risk factors.
Adults can also go into the Michigan website to obtain their own copy of their MCIR immunization record. A driver’s license, passport, or state ID card must be uploaded to verify your identity. https://mcir.org
