Getting children all of the vaccines recommended by CDC’s immunization schedule is one of the most important things parents can do to protect their children’s health—and that of classmates and the community. Schools require children to be current on vaccinations to protect the health of all students. Today’s childhood vaccines protect against serious and potentially life-threatening diseases. "Thanks to vaccines, we have seen decreased illness related to vaccine preventable diseases," said Jean Bellisario, Director of Infectious Disease at Peoria City/County Health Department. "But recent outbreaks across the country show the continued importance of keeping vaccination rates high. These illnesses can make children very sick, leading to many days of missed school, missed work for parents, and even hospitalization and death. Vaccines are safe and effective and vaccine preventable diseases are still a threat." "In the last few years we've seen cases of pertussis, or whooping cough, and chickenpox in Peoria County. We've also seen cases of measles reported in Central Illinois. Without vaccines, these numbers would be much, much higher," Bellisario said. "That’s why kids still need vaccines." When children are not vaccinated, they are at increased risk of disease and can spread diseases to others in their classrooms and community—including babies who are too young to be fully vaccinated, and people with weakened immune systems due to cancer and other health conditions. Check with your child’s healthcare provider or your health department to find out what vaccines they need this year.

The flu is a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses that infect the nose, throat, and lungs. It can cause mild to severe illness, and at times can lead to death. The best way to prevent the flu is by getting a flu vaccine each year. Signs and symptoms of flu People who have the flu often feel some or all of these signs and symptoms: Fever* or feeling feverish/chills Cough Sore throat Runny or stuffy nose Muscle or body aches Headaches Fatigue (very tired) Some people may have vomiting and diarrhea, though this is more common in children than adults.

Points of interest include bridges, dams, gaging stations, county lines, hydrologic unit boundaries, and major tributaries. Drainage areas are presented for selected sites, including total drainage area for any streams draining at least 100 square miles.
