Why immunizations are important for adults, too
Do most adults know they need a tetanus booster shot every 10 years? Immunization recommendations can vary according to age, disease and other factors and should be discussed with one‘s primary care provider, says Upstate‘s family medicine department chair, John Epling, MD, who is among the experts helping to shape those recommendations at the national level. Epling explains changes in this year‘s schedule for adults and also the process of reviewing and updating that schedule.
