What are Vaccinations?

Vaccinations, also known as immunizations, are medical intervention that helps protect individuals from infectious diseases by stimulating their immune system to produce an immune response to a specific pathogen. Vaccines contain a weakened or dead form of a virus or bacteria or a piece of the pathogen, which triggers the body’s immune system to produce antibodies that can fight the actual virus or bacteria if the person is exposed to it in the future.

Vaccinations are administered through injection, orally, or nasal spray and are typically given in a series of doses to ensure maximum effectiveness. Vaccinations are considered one of the most effective ways to prevent the spread of infectious diseases and have eradicated many dangerous diseases such as smallpox and polio.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has identified vaccination as one of the most cost-effective ways to prevent infectious diseases and save lives. Vaccinations have prevented millions of deaths worldwide and dramatically reduced the incidence of many infectious diseases.

It is important to note that vaccinations are important for personal protection and herd immunity. Herd immunity occurs when a large percentage of the population is vaccinated, making it difficult for a disease to spread even among those who are not vaccinated, including those who cannot receive vaccinations due to medical reasons.

At Core MedPlus, we offer a range of vaccinations to protect individuals and communities from infectious diseases. Our experienced healthcare providers are dedicated to providing safe and effective vaccinations to our patients to promote overall health and well-being.

At Core MedPlus, we offer a wide range of vaccinations to our patients to protect them from various infectious diseases. Some of the vaccinations we offer include:

  2. Pneumonia Vaccine: The pneumonia vaccine is a vaccination that helps protect against pneumococcal bacteria, which can cause pneumonia, meningitis, and bloodstream infections.

  4. Measles, Mumps, and Rubella (MMR) Vaccine: The MMR vaccine is a combination vaccine that helps protect against measles, mumps, and rubella, which are highly contagious viral infections that can cause serious complications, including deafness, brain damage, and death.
  5. Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Vaccine: The HPV vaccine is a series of vaccinations that helps protect against HPV, a sexually transmitted infection that can cause genital warts and certain types of cancer, including cervical, anal, and throat cancer.
  6. Tetanus, Diphtheria, and Pertussis (Tdap) Vaccine: The Tdap vaccine is a combination vaccine that helps protect against tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis (whooping cough), which are serious bacterial infections that can cause severe illness and even death.

COVID-19 Vaccination

In addition to the vaccinations listed above, Core Med Plus also offers the COVID-19 vaccination. The COVID-19 vaccination is a highly effective tool in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, which has affected millions of people worldwide and caused significant illness, hospitalization, and death.

The COVID-19 vaccination works by training the immune system to recognize and fight the virus that causes COVID-19. The vaccine is given in two doses, several weeks apart, and is available to all individuals aged 12 and older in the United States. The COVID-19 vaccination is highly effective in preventing severe illness, hospitalization, and death from COVID-19 and is a critical tool in controlling the spread of the virus.

At CoreMed Plus, we are committed to helping our patients stay healthy and protected from infectious diseases, including COVID-19. We follow the latest guidelines and recommendations from public health authorities to ensure our patients receive the highest quality care and the most up-to-date information regarding COVID-19 and the COVID-19 vaccination.

How Vaccinations Can Help You and Your Family Stay Healthy

Vaccinations are one of the most effective ways to protect yourself and your family from serious, life-threatening illnesses. They work by introducing a small, weakened or dead virus or bacteria into your body, which triggers your immune system to produce antibodies to fight the disease. Once your immune system has produced these antibodies, it will remember how to fight the disease in case you are ever exposed to it again in the future. This provides you with long-term protection against the disease.

Vaccinations are essential for people of all ages, from infants to older people. You can reduce your risk of getting sick and potentially passing the disease on to others by getting vaccinated. Vaccinations can also protect against serious complications, hospitalization, and even death related to vaccine-preventable diseases.

For children, vaccinations are particularly important. Children are more susceptible to infectious diseases, and their immune systems are not fully developed. Children can protect themselves against serious, life-threatening illnesses such as measles, mumps, rubella, polio, and more by getting vaccinated.

In addition to protecting against specific diseases, vaccinations can help improve overall health and well-being. For example, the flu vaccine has been shown to reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke in people with heart disease, and the HPV vaccine can protect against certain types of cancer.

Vaccinations also help to prevent the spread of infectious diseases within communities. When enough people in a community are vaccinated, it creates herd immunity. This means that even those who are not vaccinated, such as infants or individuals with certain medical conditions, are protected because the disease cannot easily spread through the community.

Vaccinations are also a cost-effective way to stay healthy. Getting vaccinated is typically much less than treating a serious illness, hospitalization, or ongoing medical care related to a vaccine-preventable disease.

Vaccinations are essential for maintaining good health and preventing the spread of infectious diseases. By getting vaccinated, you are taking an important step towards protecting yourself, your family, and your community from serious, life-threatening illnesses. It is important to work with your healthcare provider to determine which vaccinations are appropriate for you and your family based on age, health status, and other factors.

    I grew up in Florida as the oldest of five sons. After earning my degree from the University of Florida, I pursued my medical education in the Dominican Republic. In 1988, I began my Family Practice Residency at the “old” Pontiac General Hospital. I have been providing medical care to the same community since 1991, first in Waterford and later at our current location in White Lake, where I continue to practice today. I take pride in being board certified by the American Academy of Family Physicians and remain committed to Primary Care. I am passionate about promoting a healthy lifestyle, including a proper “balanced” diet, exercise, exposure to healthy outdoor activities, and achieving work-life balance. I married my Medical School Sweetheart, Barbara, and we are fortunate to have two adult children and a granddaughter. We have been residents of Oakland County since 1988 and enjoy all that Michigan has to offer.
