Title: Whooping Cough vaccine info
Post by: Fairfax Librarian on December 17, 2012, 10:42:15 AM
Building Bright Futures asked us the help get this info out.

The Department of Health wants all Vermonters over age 11 and especially those over age 19, to get vaccinated against whooping cough and is holding clinics next week at each of its 12 district offices across the state to combat what it says in an epidemic.

Vermont is facing a whooping cough (Pertussis) epidemic, and state health officials are urging every child, and adult, to make sure they are immunized against the disease.

Free Pertussis Vaccination Clinics
To help you to protect yourself and the babies around you, every District Office is holding a free Tdap vaccination clinic for anyone 11 years and older who has not yet had the Tdap vaccine. Learn more about Pertussis.
