Where Can I Find Immunizations Near Me?
CLS Health offers comprehensive vaccination services as part of our preventive care. With immunization clinics in Houston across various convenient locations, we ensure patients of all ages have access to vaccinations that protect against common and serious infectious diseases in the community.
Influenza Vaccine (Flu Shot)
The influenza vaccine is recommended annually to protect against the flu. The flu vaccine is updated each year to combat the most common influenza virus strains expected that season. Getting a flu shot in Houston annually helps reduce the risk of flu-related complications, especially for vulnerable populations.
MMR Vaccine
The MMR vaccine protects against three serious diseases: measles, mumps, and rubella. Measles is a highly contagious viral infection that can lead to severe health complications. Mumps can cause painful swelling of the salivary glands. Rubella can cause birth defects if a woman contracts it while pregnant. The MMR vaccination is typically administered in childhood, but unvaccinated adults should receive it.
HPV Vaccine
The HPV vaccine protects against the human papillomavirus, which can lead to cervical cancer, genital warts, and other types of cancers, including those of the throat, anus, and penis. The vaccine is most effective when administered before individuals become sexually active, typically recommended for preteens (boys and girls) at age 11 or 12. Still, it can also be given to adults up to age 45.
Allergy Shots (Immunotherapy)
Allergy shots are used to treat allergic reactions to environmental allergens such as pollen, mold, dust mites, and pet dander. These shots help desensitize the immune system to specific allergens over time, reducing the severity of reactions. Allergy shots are typically administered regularly over a period of several months to years.
COVID-19 Vaccine
The Covid vaccine is recommended to protect against the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Vaccination is crucial in preventing severe illness, hospitalization, and death. Several types of COVID-19 vaccines in Houston are available, including Pfizer and Moderna. Booster doses should be administered to maintain immunity, particularly as new variants emerge. The vaccine is recommended for everyone aged 6 months and older, with specific guidelines for different age groups and risk factors.
RSV Vaccine
The RSV (Respiratory Syncytial Virus) vaccine is recommended for high-risk groups to protect against severe infection. RSV is a common respiratory virus that usually causes mild, cold-like symptoms. However, it can lead to severe respiratory illness in certain populations, including bronchiolitis and pneumonia.
