[quote=Anonymous]CA Dept. of Public Health recommendations for who should be vaccinated: In addition to the typical series of childhood pertussis immunizations, CDPH now recommends an adolescent-adult pertussis booster vaccine (Tdap) for: • anyone 7 years and older who is not fully immunized, including those who are more than 64 years old, • women of childbearing age, before, during, or immediately after pregnancy, and • other people who have contact with pregnant women or infants. “Considering that immunity from pertussis vaccine or disease wears off and that most adults are susceptible to pertussis, now is the time for Californians to get immunized to protect themselves and their families,” said Chávez. “In particular, all family members and caregivers of infants should get the booster vaccine.” http://www.cdph.ca.gov/Pages/PH10-048.aspx [/quote]
