The UK Health Security Agency has issued a warning to individuals under 25, citing concerns that many may have missed out on essential vaccinations. Fortunately, it's easy to catch up on missed vaccines, and doing so can provide protection against serious diseases. By staying up-to-date on vaccinations, young people can reduce their risk of illness and stay healthy. The UKHSA recommends checking vaccination records and scheduling a catch-up appointment if necessary, to ensure they are protected against vaccine-preventable diseases. This is particularly important for young adults, as it can help prevent the spread of infectious diseases. Key vaccinations, such as MMR and HPV, are crucial for long-term health.
