According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), vaccinations are one of the most convenient and safest preventive care measures available.​

Vaccinations given during childhood can wear off over time which is why it is important to keep vaccinations up to date.​ Additional vaccinations may also be needed based on certain factors such as your age, job, lifestyle, travel, or health conditions.

Below are charts from the CDC with vaccinations needed at different ages starting from birth to adulthood: ​
