Question: Do adults need booster vaccinations!?
If you are vaccinated as a child, exactly to the schedule, and get your boosters in high school, are you then "Vaccinated for Life" or do you have waning immunity and need boosters throughout adulthood to maintain adequate immunity!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Yes, adults do need booster vaccinations for certain diseases!. Tetanus, for example!. You should have a tetanus booster every 10 years!. The tetanus booster given is usually actually a tetanus AND diptheria booster!.

If you are traveling to a foreign country, you may also need additional booster vaccinations!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
