Immunizations are shots that are given to strengthen the body against infectious diseases. Also called vaccinations, immunizations help mitigate the spread of common illnesses and prevent outbreaks. Although most immunizations are given in childhood, the CDC recommends certain shots for adults based on their needs and stage of life. Vaccines help the immune system produce antibodies so the body can build immunity to a specific disease.
