Preventing Illness

Public Health is an effort to build a healthy community by preventing illness. We do this by having vaccines available with the latest information so the public can make the best decisions for them and their family. Vaccines have prevented illnesses and even iradicated disease over the years. Together we prevent disease. #thisispublichealth
