  8. Meningococcal disease can lead to an infection of the bloodstream or meningitis, or both, and can be life-threatening if not quickly treated
  9. Kids get a shot against DTAP when they are babies, and that starts to wear off as they get older so a booster called Tdap is required to protect pre-teens
  10. live viruses are used in some vaccines such as in the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine. Live, virus is a weakened version of the virus, it will protect you against the virus but wont give you the virus
  11. Vaccines begin at 2 months of age to protect babies as early in life as possible against diseases that can make them very sick
  12. Vaccines save lives and protect against the spread of disease
  13. When vaccination rates are high, disease rates are low.
  14. The flu shot is the best way to reduce your chances of severe flu and of spreading it to others and have been used for more than 60 years
  15. Tetanus kills 10% or more of its victims.
  16. If we stop vaccination, deadly diseases will return.
  17. If people are not vaccinated, diseases that have become uncommon such as pertussis (whooping cough), polio and measles, will quickly reappear.
  18. Because HPV can cause serious problems, for example some types of cancer can be caused by HPV, a vaccine is an important step in preventing infection and protecting against the spread of HPV
  19. All vaccine-preventable diseases have declined in countries with successful vaccination programs
  20. Most childhoodvaccines are 90% to 99% effective in preventing disease.
  21. The meningococcal vaccines protect against meningococcal disease, a serious infection that can lead to bacterial meningitis and other serious infections
  22. Pertussis(“whooping cough”) kills between 1 and 4 babies every year. About 1 in 400 babies who survive pertussis has permanent brain damage.
  23. Killed (inactivated) viruses or bacteria are used in some vaccines, such as in IPV (polio)
  24. Babies and little kids get shots called DTaP to protect them from diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis (whooping cough).
