Message 1 – Vaccines save lives. They help protect us from potentially serious illnesses like #measles, whooping cough and polio.

Message 3 – Vaccine preventable diseases have been on the rise in Canada and around the world. From measles to pertussis, polio, immunizations remain one of the most effective tools in preventing these potentially serious illnesses.

When healthcare providers recommend vaccines, people are more likely to get vaccinated. Encourage your patients to keep up with routine immunizations to help prevent the return of these preventable diseases.
