📢 Health Surveillance and Epidemiology Unit Health Advisory

National Adolescent Immunization Month

The Health Surveillance and Epidemiology Unit (HSEU) enjoins all military personnel and their dependents to take part in the observance of National Adolescent Immunization Month this August.

💉 Why adolescent immunization matters:
Protects teens from vaccine-preventable diseases such as measles, tetanus, diphtheria, hepatitis B, and HPV.

Provides a chance to catch up on missed childhood vaccines.

Reinforces immunity as earlier vaccines wane over time.

Safeguards the health of our military families and strengthens force readiness.

✅ Action:
Military dependents may avail adolescent vaccines through the Pediatric Clinic at Victoriano Luna General Hospital (VLGH).

We also encourage families to seek vaccination services at their Local Health Centers and facilities near their homes.

🛡️ Healthy adolescents today, stronger AFP families tomorrow
