Mumbai (Anil Bedag): In an era marked by changing lifestyles, growing age-related health concerns, and the constant emergence of infectious diseases, healthcare is no longer focused only on treatment but increasingly on prevention. Taking this vision forward, Fortis Hospital Mulund has launched a dedicated Adult Vaccination Clinic aimed at creating awareness about adult immunization and strengthening preventive healthcare services. The clinic was inaugurated by Dr. Himmatrao Bawaskar in the presence of hospital management, senior doctors, and healthcare experts.
The clinic will offer consultation, risk assessment, and vaccination services under one roof for serious illnesses such as influenza, pneumonia, hepatitis B, shingles, tetanus, and HPV. This initiative, led by infectious disease specialist Dr. Kirti Sabnis, is considered especially important for adults whose immunity may weaken due to age, chronic illnesses, or specific medical conditions. The hospital believes that timely awareness and vaccination can play a crucial role in building a healthier and safer society.
