THE THREAD OF WOMEN'S HEALTH

The doctor recommended she should get vaccinated, but why?

Reassure your aunt, her doctor gave her good advice especially to monitor possible relapses and worry less.

The primary objective of a vaccination is to keep a healthy woman healthy, and not to treat a sick woman.
