February 12-18, 2012 is Preteen Vaccine Awareness Week!
Health providers are recommending that your child get vaccinated against some major diseases among teenagers.
From the HPV vaccine for boys, to a Pertussis booster shot for all 7th graders for the 2012-13 school year, this is a prime time to discuss the guidelines with your child's physician. Immunizing 11-12 year-olds is especially recommended.
