Vaccinations in Edison & South Plainfield, NJ
Getting sick can throw you in for a loop, altering plans you have for the immediate future and affecting your ability to go about your day-to-day life. In order to prevent unexpected flu or other serious diseases from disrupting your plans, you can get vaccinated for a number of viruses and infections at your local AFC Urgent Care. A vaccination will prevent you from contracting an illness and from spreading it through your home or workplace. At AFC Urgent Care, we provide immunizations for people of all ages.
What is a Vaccination?
A vaccination, or immunization, is an injection of a weakened virus or disease. Instead of getting you sick, your body is introduced to the strain and begins to build up antibodies to fight and destroy the disease in the most effective way possible. Once you have been vaccinated against a virus, you will be immune to it for a certain period of time. Most vaccinations will require a booster shot or follow-up dose in order to stay up-to-date.

How do I know if I need a vaccine?
To discover which vaccinations you've received, look up your vaccination history. Your vaccination record is a comprehensive document that details the history of all of your vaccines as a youngster and as an adult. To access your vaccination record you can ask your family or doctor if they have your up to date report.

Is it safe to get my vaccinations from AFC instead of my regular doctor?
Yes, AFC offers several services that otherwise are made available only through an appointment at your doctor's office. Whether you need a regular checkup, vaccinations, or lab work, we're able to provide healthcare alongside your general practitioner, so you never need to go without the services you need.
