Immunizations & Vaccinations

PROTECTING THE COMMUNITY

Immunizations and vaccines are essential tools in protecting the health of our Native American community, from children to adults. Vaccines help prevent the spread of serious diseases like measles, mumps, and chickenpox in our children, and they protect us all from seasonal flu and COVID-19. By staying up-to-date on recommended vaccinations, including the flu and COVID-19 vaccines, we can safeguard our families, elders, and communities. At AIHSC, we are committed to providing these important vaccines to ensure that everyone in our community stays healthy and protected.

Flu Shots

Seasonal flu shots prevents the spread of seasonal influenza and protecting both individuals and the community, especially during the colder months. The CDC recommends that everyone 6 months and older get a flu vaccine each year, ideally by the end of October, to ensure the best protection. Vaccination helps reduce the severity of illness, prevent hospitalizations, and protect vulnerable groups such as young children, the elderly, and individuals with chronic health conditions.

Covid Vaccines & Boosters

The COVID-19 vaccine remains an essential tool in protecting individuals and communities from severe illness, hospitalization, and death. The CDC recommends that everyone 6 months and older stay up to date with COVID-19 vaccinations, including any booster doses, based on their eligibility. These vaccines continue to be effective in reducing the spread of COVID-19 and protecting those at higher risk, including older adults and individuals with underlying health conditions.
