FLORIDA-MOMS AND -DADS, TUNE IN: DOCTOR MARÍA DEL CARMEN GUTIÉRREZ--A PEDIATRICIAN IN
MIAMI--TALKS ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF VACCINATING YOUR CHILDREN...
(GUTIÉRREZ):
"AS A PEDIATRICIAN, I HAVE SEEN HOW DEVASTATING VACCINE-PREVENTABLE
DISEASES--AND THEIR COMPLICATIONS--CAN BE TO OUR CHILDREN. THE 'CENTERS FOR DISEASE-CONTROL AND
-PREVENTION' RECOMMENDS A VACCINATION-SCHEDULE THAT HELPS PROTECT AGAINST 14 SERIOUS DISEASES, BEFORE THE AGE OF TWO.
ACCORDING TO THE 2015 'NATIONAL IMMUNIZATION SURVEY'--AMONG FLORIDIAN CHILDREN, AGED 19- TO
35-MONTHS--APPROXIMATELY 33-PERCENT HAVE NOT BEEN FULLY VACCINATED. AS PARENTS, GETTING OUR CHILDREN
VACCINATED--WITH ALL DOSES, AT THE SCHEDULED TIMES--IS ONE OF THE MOST-IMPORTANT STEPS [THAT] WE CAN TAKE, TO HELP PROTECT THEM FROM SERIOUS ILLNESSES."
(CLOSE):
FAMILIES WITHOUT VACCINE-INSURANCE COVERAGE MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR VACCINES AT REDUCED OR NO
COST--THROUGH THE "VACCINES FOR CHILDREN"-PROGRAM, OR
"V-F-C". TO LEARN MORE, VISIT "VACCINES-FOR-FLORIDA-BABIES"-DOT-COM.
