Vaccine Preventable Diseases
<br />According to the CDC, vaccine -targeted age groups include children who are Tess 5 years old, adults
<br />over the age of 65, pregnant women and women 2 weeks postpartum. Table 40 shows the numbers
<br />and rates of vaccine preventable diseases for vaccine -targeted age groups in Indian River County and
<br />Florida from 2009 through 2012. Due to the relatively small number of occurrences, an even small
<br />change in the number of occurrences will influence the rate.
