Recommended immunizations
that all seniors should have
Routine immunizations can keep
people safe and healthy. Certain
vaccinations can prevent
diseases from producing symptoms,
while others can lessen the duration
of an illness or make conditions less
severe.
Vaccination schedules become a
way of life for parents to young children.
But vaccinations aren’t just
for kids, and adults should keep tabs
on their immunization histories to
ensure they’re up-to-date with vaccinations
for their particular age
group and lifestyle.
The Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention warns that the elderly
are more likely to die of a vaccine
preventable disease than other
age groups. The immune system begins
to decline as we age, so the body
can benefit from the disease-fighting
boost provided by vaccinations.
Individuals at any age should discuss
immunizations with their doctors,
but it’s a particularly important
conversation for those age 50
and older.
Vaccine schedules and recommendations
may vary depending on
where a person lives, but the following
immunization recommendations
are offered courtesy of the Centers.
Infl uenza: An annual flu shot can
help prevent the nearly 36,000 deaths
that occur due to flu each year in the
United States. The flu vaccine is designed
to combat the current strain
of flu, so it is recommended anytime
between September to March, which
is the prime flu season. People age
50 and older should opt for the injection
rather than the nasal form of
the vaccine.
Tdap: This vaccine protects
against tetanus, diphtheria, and
pertussis and is especially necessary
for people who have close contact
with young infants. Pertussis,
or whooping cough, can be passed
on to youngsters and make them
very ill. If you’ve never received a
Tdap vaccine, the Centers suggests
getting it at least once. Individual
tetanus boosters should be received
every 10 years.
Pneumococcal: Pneumococcal
disease is an infection caused by the
pneumococcus bacteria. It can cause
pneumonia, blood infection, ear infections,
and even bacterial meningitis.
This vaccine is given to adults
age 65 and older or to younger adults
at their physicians’ discretion.
Hepatitis A: Individuals with
medical, occupational or lifestyle
conditions, such as healthcare workers
or people with chronic liver disease,
may need a two-dose series of
the hepatitis A vaccine.
Adults who are avid travelers to
various parts of the world that may
bring them in contact with animals
or people who do not receive the same
course of immunizations may need
additional vaccines. Speak with a
doctor about which immunizations
are recommended before travel.
Wellness
The immune system begins to decline as we age, so the body can benefi t from the diseasefi
ghting boost provided by vaccinations.
