Heavy ma*****na use can have long-term effects on the developing teen brain.

Don't forget to get your flu shot this season! When most kids are vaccinated, it's like a superhero team-up! Vaccines help create herd immunity, protecting those who can't get vaccinated, like babies or kids with weak immune systems. This community-wide shield stops diseases from spreading. It's not just about protecting your child - it's about keeping everyone safe!
