Immunizations

Infant & Child Immunization

• Immunizations are one of the best ways to protect your children against diseases that once killed and disabled millions in the U.S.
• While we no longer see many vaccine-preventable childhood diseases, the viruses and bacteria that cause these diseases are still circulating.
• Infants and young children need to receive the recommended immunizations on time in order to be protected against diseases.

  Adolescent Immunization 

   

• Immunization isn't just for infants and young children.
• As you grow, the immunizations that are recommended for your age group change, but they are just as important for preventing disease as those you received as a child.

Immunization Clinic Hours

The Fulton County Health Department plays an active role in assisting families to protect their children from vaccine-preventable diseases. Getting your child vaccinated is very important. Please, Be Wise, Immunize! State-provided vaccines cost $10.00 each; however, no one will be turned away due to the inability to pay.

Having trouble getting your child to a clinic?  You can give permission for another adult (age 18 or older) to bring your child to a clinic.  Simply download our Immunization Consent Form, complete it, sign it and send it with your child.

We want to help you keep your child's vaccinations up-to-date!!!
