How Bad Will This Respiratory Virus Season Be? @CDCgov Weighs In. via @medpagetoday ow.ly/WPIB50PVETu #GetVaccinated #StopTheSpread

As summer comes to an end and fall begins, respiratory virus season is again upon us. Vaccination helps to reduce severe illness and the risk of hospitalization. Protect yourself and your family with Flu, COVID-19, and RSV vaccines. @mcicpa #RespiratoryVirusSeason #VaxMontco

While savoring the cool air, participating in fall festivals, and choosing your perfect pumpkin, don't forget to schedule your annual flu shot! And make sure to ask about any other vaccinations to keep your family safe. #NotJustTheFlu #VaccinesSaveLives

🍂 It's that time of year! 🍁 Don't forget to schedule your flu shot and take a moment to ask your healthcare provider about any other vaccinations you may need. #NotJustTheFlu #immunizations #VaccinesSaveLives

Did you know you should get your flu shot every fall? CDC recommends getting a flu shot every year because protection declines over time. Flu viruses are also constantly changing, so flu shots are updated yearly to provide the best protection. #VaxYourFam #WhyIVax #NotJustTheFlu

Kids deserve to be healthy. RSV is an infection virtually all of them will get, so they deserve the best protection against it. That’s why we’re hoping for a vaccine 🤞 voicesforvaccines.org/our-worst-nigh… #ImmunityCommuity #NIAM23 #VaxYourFam #Vaccines #WhyIVax

Back to school is the perfect time to make sure your children are up-to-date with their immunizations. Find information on the recommended immunizations on our website. immunizesd.org/parents-and-fa… #NIAM23 #VaxYourFam #Vaccines #WhyIVax

Healthy choices go together. You don’t need sleep OR physical activity. You need both! The same is true for vaccination. It fits right in with a healthy lifestyle, and it’s one of the easiest choices you can make! #ImmunityCommuity #NIAM23 #VaxYourFam #Vaccines #WhyIVax

Did you know there’s a program to help cover the cost of vaccines for children? The federally funded Vaccines for Children (VFC) program provides childhood vaccines for those that may be unable to pay. Learn more: doh.sd.gov/local-offices/ #NIAM23 #VaxYourFam #Vaccines #WhyIVax

Start smart this year. Get your child all recommended vaccines and keep them in the game! #ImmunityCommuity #NIAM23 #VaxYourFam #Vaccines #WhyIVax

Vaccines prevent A LOT of diseases. The time to find out whether you’re protected against all of them is before you’re exposed to one. You can easily check if you missed one by calling your doctor’s office. #ImmunityCommuity #NIAM23 #VaxYourFam #Vaccines #WhyIVax

As the new school year approaches, talk to your health care provider to make sure your children are up to date on their vaccines. Visit our website to learn more. immunizesd.org/parents-and-fa… #ImmunityCommuity #NIAM23 #VaxYourFam #Vaccines #WhyIVax

Kimberly was a healthy high school senior until meningococcal serogroup B caught up with her. There wasn’t a vaccine available for Kimberly, but there is one now for your kids voicesforvaccines.org/losing-a-child… #ImmunityCommuity #NIAM23 #VaxYourFam #Vaccines #WhyIVax

Did you know vaccines are a better option than natural immunity? Vaccines allow you to build immunity without the damaging effects that the diseases can have. The cost of immunity through natural infection could be vastly hazardous to your health. #VaxYourFam #Vaccines #WhyIVax

1% may seem small. But if the MMR vaccination rate drops just a few points below 95%, measles can find a way to spread through a community. The good news is we only have a little way to go until our state is adequately protected. #ImmunityCommuity #NIAM23 #VaxYourFam #WhyIVax

Ensuring that your child receives the recommended vaccines on schedule can shield them from illnesses that can be prevented through vaccination. This leads to fewer sick days, more time in school, and more opportunities for growth and learning. #VaxYourFam #Vaccines #WhyIVax

The HPV vaccine can prevent most HPV-related cancers from ever developing. It’s one of our favorites.💙 Fortunately, you don't have to pick a favorite vaccine - kids deserve the full routine schedule. #ImmunityCommuity #NIAM23 #VaxYourFam #Vaccines #WhyIVax

Did you know giving several vaccines at once does not harm the immune system? There is no scientific evidence that giving several vaccines at the same time damages, weakens, or overloads an immune system. #VaxYourFam #Vaccines #WhyIVax
