Vaccinations Are Safe And Effective At Preventing Disease
Protect Yourself, Your Whānau, And Your Community. Immunise
Immunisations are designed to protect people and populations from infectious diseases. Vaccines stimulate the immune system to recognise and fight specific pathogens, such as viruses or bacteria. By receiving immunisations, patients can significantly reduce their risk of contracting serious illnesses and the potential complications associated with them.
Vaccinations play a crucial role in achieving community immunity, also known as herd immunity. When a significant portion of a population is immune to a particular disease, the spread of that disease is limited, protecting even those who are not vaccinated or have weakened immune systems.
At Ōakura Medical we understand there is confusing and scary misinformation on the internet about vaccinations.
