Occupational medicine clinics extend their scope beyond COVID-19 vaccines to include a range of additional vaccines designed to protect employees from hazards inherent to their work environment.
These vaccines are strategically selected to meet the unique demands of different occupational groups, helping to maintain a safe and healthy workforce.
For instance, they offer vaccinations against:
- Anthrax, given the risk of exposure in certain industrial sectors
- Covid-19, vaccine and booster for protection from infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus
- Hepatitis A, common in food processing facilities and healthcare settings
- Hepatitis B, crucial for employees exposed to bloodborne pathogens
- Measles, mumps, rubella (MMR), necessary for individuals without documented immunity
- Tuberculosis (TB), pertinent for international travelers and those working in close proximity
- Tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis (TDAP)
- Varicella (chickenpox), required for susceptible healthcare workers
- Neisseria meningitidis C, critical for college students living in dormitories and military recruits
- Influenza, annually offered to reduce seasonal respiratory illness
- Rabies, imperative for veterinary technicians and animal handlers
