Vaccination (also called "immunization") is the best way to protect yourself and those around you against certain diseases.
Vaccines not only protect us from diseases that can cause severe illness or even death, but they can also reduce the spread of infectious diseases. Some of these diseases have no medical treatment, so it’s important to stay up to date with your vaccinations.

VACCINES ARE SAFE AND EFFECTIVE
Canadian laws and regulations set high standards for vaccine development, safety and testing, making vaccination very safe. In fact, Canada must follow a strict process for approving, using and monitoring vaccines.
Although vaccines, like any other medication, aren't 100% effective, vaccination is still one of medicine's greatest achievements. The World Health Organization estimates that vaccination prevents more than two million deaths worldwide every year.
