mmunizations mean protection for your child against many contagious diseases for which we have no effective treatment. We can prevent these diseases, but can only support the non- immunized child once he/she contracts the illness. You should see to it that your child has received all the protection he/she can for many of these diseases are extremely serious and can cause permanent crippling and even death.

There have been numerous concerns about the safety of vaccines over the years. Our “EVCC Links” page on the EVCC website has links to several organizations that explain in detail the risks of vaccines as well as the common myths that have been associated with vaccines. All of the vaccines your child will receive are thimerosol (mercury) free with the exception of the influenza vaccine made for age 3 and older, for which a preservative free version is available.
