Everyone has the power to protect themselves, their families, and their communities against serious conditions like measles, the flu, hepatitis, HPV and more with recommended vaccines. The National Foundation for Infectious Diseases offers information, resources, and professional education about vaccines recommended across the lifespan (including children, adolescents, and adults).
