It's National Influenza Vaccination Week! 🩹💪 A perfect time to remember that early immunizations help children build immunity before they are exposed to germs that can make them very sick.

Vaccines are one of our most powerful tools to prevent life-threatening diseases. That's why most childhood vaccines are recommended during your baby's first 12 to 18 months of life.

Have questions about which vaccines your child needs? You're not alone! Check out this helpful resource from AAP to see what's recommended before age 6: https://www.healthychildren.org/English/safety-prevention/immunizations/Pages/Your-Babys-First-Vaccines.aspx



¡Es la semana nacional de vacunación contra la influenza! 🩹💪 Es el momento ideal para recordar que las vacunas tempranas ayudan a que los niños desarrollen defensas antes de exponerse a gérmenes que pueden causarles enfermedades graves.

Las vacunas son una de nuestras herramientas más eficaces para prevenir enfermedades potencialmente mortales. Por eso, la mayoría de las vacunas infantiles se recomiendan durante los primeros 12 a 18 meses de vida.

¿Tiene preguntas sobre qué vacunas necesita su hijo(a)? ¡No está solo(a) en esto! Consulte este recurso útil de la AAP con las recomendaciones hasta los 6 años: https://www.healthychildren.org/spanish/safety-prevention/immunizations/paginas/your-babys-first-vaccines.aspx
