Types of Vaccines by Age
Most people have received several vaccinations by the time they turn six years old. At MyCare 365, we treat patients from 12+ through adulthood, and there are many recommended vaccinations for those in these age-ranges as well.
Children and adolescents need additional vaccinations as they age since some vaccinations received in infancy and early childhood begin to wear. Vaccines that protect against COVID-19; tetanus, diphtheria and acellular pertussis; meningococcal disease; and human papillomavirus (HPV) are all recommended for children in their pre-teen and adolescent years.
Most college-aged students must provide comprehensive immunization records to their college or university prior to enrolling. We can help students ensure they have received all required vaccines and can provide full documentation for students as they prepare for college admission. Meningitis, in particular, is more likely to affect those who live in communal housing, such as a college dorm. Getting vaccinated is the first defense against meningococcal disease.
Even adults need vaccines. Common vaccinations for adults include those that protect against COVID-19, the flu virus, hepatitis, meningitis, pneumonia, tetanus and shingles.
