NEW! In @reflectornews, CEO Mark Gibbons highlights how decreased vaccine rates are driving measles outbreaks across the country, putting seniors at risk. To protect North Carolina, legislators need to prioritize strong vaccine policies! ➡ https://t.co/tcJ4cEhmKo
· Vaccines don’t just protect individuals — they protect entire families. When parents, children, and caregivers stay up to date, they create a protective circle around older loved ones. Policies that support vaccine access are critical for families nationwide.
· Vaccines save lives — especially for older Americans. As we age, our immune systems weaken, making preventable illnesses like COVID-19, RSV, and shingles even more dangerous. Staying up to date on recommended vaccines is essential to public health.
