Immunizations are an important part of staying healthy. However, many people are unaware that shots are recommended throughout the lifespan. Immunizations are recommended for adolescents to help keep them healthy and protected into adulthood.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) develops annual immunization recommendations for individuals from childhood through adulthood. Please visit CDC’s recommended immunization schedule for preteens and teens.
