Childhood immunizations are very important for children all over the world. Every country has different requirements for what immunizations children should have when they are born. Immunizations can help protect children from many common infections. These infections can lead to serious and even life threatening complications.
I believe immunizations are very important to keep children healthy. Most immunizations have been around for years and have been through many years of research.
I work with child care providers. It is required for providers to have up-to-date immunization records on each of the children in their care. We make sure they have the most recent immunization information.
In Bolivia and Brazil it is required to be immunized for yellow fever, typhoid and rabies. These are immunizations that are not required in the United States.
Richelle,
ReplyDeleteI also picked immunizations. I feel that immunizations are very important, because not only does it affect the child but also the other people that child comes in contact with in a daily basis.
I couldn't agree with you more about the importance of immunizations. I was assistant diirector of a child care program for 5 years and one of my responsibilities was to take care of the children's files which included immunizations. Unfortunately I had to be the bearer of bad news when parents had updated their childs records, luckily I never had any problems with parents refusing to get their child the proper immunizations. After reading your blog I found it interesting about the different immunizations Brazil requires than the United States.
