Immunizations protect people from many infectious diseases that once caused serious illness and sometimes death. Epidemics of polio, smallpox, whooping cough and other diseases have all but faded into the distant past. But the germs that cause these diseases often remain in the population and can re-emerge under the right conditions. So immunization of children, adolescents, and adults for these diseases is generally recognized as sound medical practice.
