As respiratory season approaches, staying up to date on vaccinations is vital—not only to protect your health but to safeguard the well-being of our entire community.
“Vaccinations are a cornerstone of modern medicine and public health,” said Aspirus Family Medicine Physician, Kirsti Wegener, MD. “By staying up to date, we protect ourselves, our families, and the most vulnerable in our communities.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), vaccinations save millions of lives worldwide each year. By training the immune system to recognize and fight serious diseases, vaccines help protect individuals from illness and reduce the spread of disease within communities.
The Vaccine Clinics aim to make this essential health step as simple and accessible as possible for busy families. Aspirus nursing staff will be on hand to administer required and recommended vaccines and to answer any questions caregivers may have.
