Vaccinations: Protecting Health, Preventing Disease
At Dr. Janardhana Reddy’s Pediatric Clinic, we offer safe, timely, and personalized vaccination services for newborns, children, and adolescents. Dr. Reddy ensures that each child receives age-appropriate immunizations according to national and international guidelines, while also addressing any concerns parents may have with clarity and care.
Vaccinations are one of the most effective ways to protect your child from serious and potentially life-threatening diseases like measles, polio, hepatitis, influenza, and more. By vaccinating your child, you not only safeguard their health but also help prevent the spread of infections within your family and the broader community.
With a focus on comfort, accuracy, and long-term protection, our clinic provides a child-friendly environment and detailed immunization tracking to keep your child’s vaccination schedule on track. We also offer travel vaccines, flu shots, and rabies immunizations, making us a one-stop destination for your child’s preventive health needs.
What Are Vaccinations and How Do They Work?
Vaccinations work by introducing a weakened or inactivated form of a disease-causing germ (virus or bacteria), or parts of it, into your body. This “mock infection” is not strong enough to make you sick, but it is sufficient to stimulate your immune system.
Here’s how it generally works:
- Introduction of Antigens: The vaccine contains specific components (antigens) of a virus or bacterium.
- Immune Response: Your immune system recognizes these antigens as foreign and produces specialized proteins called antibodies, as well as memory cells.
- Future Protection: If you encounter the actual virus or bacterium in the future, your immune system quickly recognizes it. The memory cells rapidly produce antibodies to fight off the infection, preventing you from getting sick or significantly reducing the severity of the illness.
