Why is getting immunized important? Vaccines are safe and effective. By saying “yes,” you are helping to protect you or your child against diseases caused by certain viruses and bacteria. Immunization is one of the most powerful and cost-effective tools to prevent, control and manage vaccine preventable diseases. How to get immunized? Publicly funded vaccines are available to residents of New Brunswick based on the eligibility as outlined in the NB Routine Immunization Schedule. This schedule outlines the routine immunizations recommended for infants, children, adolescents and adults. Parents of adolescents who are not enrolled in a public school in New Brunswick may call their local Public Health office located within their regional health authority for further information.
