Adult immunizations.
Effective and successful vaccination programs during childhood have resulted in a growing number of unimmunized persons reaching adulthood without being exposed to common infectious diseases. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that physicians establish an ongoing immunization program for adults. Before administering a vaccine, physicians must consider a patient's risk of contracting the disease and the safety and efficacy of the vaccine.
