Young babies and small children are more delicate than grown-ups and can fall ill more easily. That's why they need to be vaccinated. Generally, by the time they are two years old, they've already been vaccinated against a number of diseases.

Being vaccinated has individual and social benefits, in other words it's good for you, and it's also good for everyone else around you and near you.
