Every year thousands of adults in the U.S. can avoid serious illness and hospitalization with vaccination. Serious illness may cause death. By getting vaccinated, you protect yourself from preventable diseases and prepare yourself for the future. For first responders, it's important to stay up to date on vaccine recommendations before going into a disaster area. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practice (ACIP) sets the recommendations.

First responders do not always get their recommended vaccines. Sometimes they wait until they prepare for deployment or arrive at a disaster site. Since vaccinations do not work right away, there is a risk of getting an infection. The infection can spread to their home community and the risk is especially high for their immediate family members.

By using the Texas Immunization Registry, you, your employers, and your healthcare providers can keep track of any given vaccine. One way to increase the number of people getting vaccinated is to use the registry's roster section. This section helps remind you when you are due for vaccines and keeps track of your vaccination status. The Texas Immunization Registry combines all vaccination records. This makes it easier to see which vaccines you've received, and which are still needed. It also helps avoid unnecessary doses and missed opportunities to get vaccinated. Using the registry makes it easier to calculate vaccination rates. The Texas Immunization Registry also provides you with a personal immunization record to keep for yourself.
