Why is important that children are vaccinated?
What will be an ideal response?
Vaccines are administered early in life because many preventable diseases are more common in infants and young children. Vaccinations protect the child, as well as those in the child's community. An immunized person is less susceptible to a disease and less likely to transmit it to others. State laws require schoolchildren to be fully immunized, a requirement that has increased vaccination rates and prevented many diseases.
