Protection from Diseases
Vaccines prepare your immune system to fight off infections faster and more efficiently by introducing a weakened or dead form of the disease-causing microorganism or its proteins into your body.
Herd immunity
When a significant portion of a community gets vaccinated, the spread of disease slows down or stops completely. This protects those who cannot be vaccinated, such as newborns or those who are allergic or immunocompromised.
Prevention is better than cure.
Many vaccine-preventable diseases can result in serious complications and be fatal. Vaccines are a safe and effective way to prevent these diseases, rather than undergoing treatment after contracting them.
Economic Benefits
Vaccination programs cost less compared to the treatment of infectious diseases. They reduce the burden on the healthcare system and contribute to stronger economies by ensuring a healthier workforce.
Travel safely.
Vaccinations are essential for safe travel. Some countries require proof of certain vaccinations before allowing entry to protect their citizens and prevent the spread of diseases.
Remember, vaccines save millions of lives each year and are recognized as one of the most successful and cost-effective health interventions. Let’s trust science, get vaccinated, and protect ourselves and our communities.
