If you have a sore throat or skin sores, you might have diphtheria.
The diphtheria vaccine is safe and has been used for many years. Little ones get it as part of their childhood immunisations, and most adults have had it too.
Adults now need a booster every 5 years to stay protected.
Vaccinations help keep you and your family healthy. Ask at Congress when your next vaccination is due.
