August is National Immunization Awareness Month and the Newton County Health Department would like to emphasize that immunizations, at every age, provide life-saving protection for our whole community. This article is the first in a four part series to increase awareness about the importance of vaccinations -- from back to school requirements to the flu season. With back-to-school activities in full swing across Newton County, the Health Department would like to remind parents and college students to add vaccinations to their back-to-school checklists.
August is here! Get smart, get immunized!
