Adults need vaccinations too
Vaccinations aren't only for kids. In fact, CNN has a list of seven vaccinations adults need to seriously consider. For instance, you may have been vaccinated for whooping cough as a child, but experts say the bacterial infection is back, due to immunity of those vaccinated in the 70s wearing off. Doctors are recommending a booster for adults.Other shots you might want to talk to your doctor about:
- chicken pox, if you've never had the illness
- shingles, approved for people over 60, but may be given to people over 50
- MMR, especially if you were born between 1957 and 1967
- traveler's diseases if you're taking a trip (influenza, typhoid, meningitis, and yellow fever, for instance)
- hepatitis B
