Immunizations

Immunizations prevent deaths every year in all age groups from diseases like diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, measles, chickenpox, influenza, hepatitis, and human papilloma virus (HPV).  Immunizations remain one of the most successful, cost-effective public health interventions.   However, approximately 42,000 adults and 300 children in the United States die each year from vaccine-preventable diseases, according to healthypeople.gov.
