Vaccinations Walk-In Clinic Questions and Answers

As we all know, an infectious disease can be devastating without widespread vaccine availability! Fortunately, most infectious diseases in the United States are preventable with vaccines. As such, the choice to get vaccinated is one of the most important health decisions you can make for yourself, your family, and your community, as vaccines are the safest way to develop herd immunity on a large scale. Here at AFC Urgent Care, our team of medical professionals would be delighted to provide you and your family with whatever vaccinations you require!

Why should I get my family and myself vaccinated?

Vaccines are the best defense we have against infectious disease, and while many of the diseases vaccines protect against are much less of a concern than they once were, they still exist. The National Foundation of Infectious Diseases (NFID) states that approximately 50,000 individuals die per year from diseases that are preventable by vaccines in the United States alone. As such, vaccines are still an essential part of disease prevention and living a healthy life.

Moreover, vaccines do not only help the person who receives the vaccine but also that person's family and community, especially those who have compromised immune systems due to age, underlying medical conditions, or autoimmune disorders.
