With the passing COVID crisis and all the travelling restrictions placed all over the globe, we have all understood Mother Nature’s wrath. We all must realize the value and importance of preventive measures that must be taken to help us as a species eliminate such disasters in future. This blog will discuss the importance of immunization and the need for travel vaccines.
What makes immunization so important for our modern societies?
Immunization is one of the most successful public health interventions in history. There are many reasons why immunization is so important.
- It protects people against a wide range of infectious diseases.
- It is one of the most cost-effective public health interventions and has saved millions of lives.
- It protects people from serious diseases like measles, whooping cough and polio.
- It also helps to prevent outbreaks of infectious diseases in communities.
But immunization also has many benefits for society as a whole. For example, it reduces the risk of disease outbreaks in other parts of the world. And it supports international efforts to fight disease around the world. In short, immunization is good for everyone. Immunization clinics should be an integral part of our social fabric these days!
Why enforcing mandatory vaccines for travel is so valuable in our times?
Mandatory travel vaccines are valuable in our times because they protect everyone, including those who cannot be vaccinated, such as young infants and immunocompromised individuals.
- In addition, if vaccines are required for entry into a country, there’s no way for someone to get in without being vaccinated.
- A person with an infectious disease could easily spread it to others while travelling.
- Mandatory vaccination requirements also protect people who aren’t travelling by ensuring that everyone is protected from disease.
- If you’re not vaccinated against a particular disease, you might be more likely to get sick when you travel because your immune system is weakened by not receiving vaccines.
By requiring all travellers to show proof of vaccination, you can ensure that everyone is protected from a disease no matter where they happen to be in the world.
