I was working around my house this weekend and managed a pretty good puncture injury working on my vehicle.  It made me think that my immunizations were not up to date and I ran down to my local clinic to get updated.  As an outdoorsman growing up in the country I normally manage to injure myself in a minor way at least once every 10 years, enough to remind me about updating my immunizations and you should consider it too.  This is especially true if you work in the garden.

If you work in the inspection field, are a builder, contractor, or just work around the house you should consult your doctor about the need and recommended frequency of immunizations to protect yourself against unnecessary illness due to minor injuries.
