Many infectious diseases and some chronic conditions can be successfully prevented through timely vaccination.
With proper immunisation diseases like Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis, Influenza and Pneumococcal Pneumonia can be easily prevented. It is even more important for the elderly to prevent the onset of diseases that may be difficult to treat due to lower immunity and a more vulnerable state of health.
