School Starts Soon—Is Your Child Fully Vaccinated?
As you help your kids get ready for school, make sure they're fully vaccinated. Web tools from CDC can help parents and doctors keep children up-to-date with the vaccines they need and protected from serious diseases.
West Nile Virus
Some of what happens in life is luck. Many people who are bitten by an infected mosquito won't get sick—many others aren't as lucky. A single mosquito bite can give you West Nile virus. Why take a chance? Use repellent on yourself and your family.
CDC.gov feature articles are written by subject matter experts and health communicators, then edited to emphasize strong call-to-action messages and friendly, meaningful visuals. While most features are topic- or event-driven, some capture the full scope of CDC's work on cross-cutting topics such as staying healthy and safe over the holidays, sending kids back to school, or CDC's global programs and outreach. CDC Features may be syndicated to other Web sites at no cost. Learn more about Content Syndication.
