Vaccine Myths - Busted!

Myth: Natural infection is better than immunization

While some argue that natural infection can lead to better immunity than vaccination, the price a patient may pay for catching that disease can be much higher. Getting vaccinated prevents diseases that can ultimately lead to permanent brain damage, pneumonia, or even death. The risk of disease outweighs the risk associated with vaccines. Ask your doctor and/or pharmacist any questions you may have about your vaccination schedule.
