Immunizations are administrations of substances which protect a person from becoming infected by particular pathogens (bacteria, viruses, etc). Some immunizations are effective only if given at certain ages, or are not considered to be needed in people at other ages. For example, the Hemophilus immunization is needed in childhood, but Hemophilus infections are not common in adulthood. So it would not be appropriate to give a Hemophilus immunization to an adult. In the United States, the body which determines which immunizations are needed is the Centers for Disease Control (CDC).
Children have to receive immunizations for Hepatitis A and B, Tetanus, Measles, Mumps, Rubella and Chickenpox. These are the major vaccinations needed to enter into public schools.
Immunize your child against rubella when he's about 12 - 15 months of age. Then ensure he gets a booster around the age of 6. As with all immunizations, there may be mild side effects so be sure to discuss the risks with your pediatrician.
MMR, TB, polio, tetnus, diphtheria. Are the main ones.
There are no immunizations for lupus because lupus is not contagious. Immunizations protect you from pathogens. Lupus is not caused by a pathogen, therefore there is no possibility of immunization.
Immunizations are important because, well, they help you to become immune to illnesses.
Immunization schedules vary by country and can also depend on individual factors such as health status and travel plans. However, common immunizations for infants and children include vaccines for diseases like measles, mumps, rubella, polio, and hepatitis B given in multiple doses starting from birth. Adolescents and adults may require additional vaccinations like flu shots, tetanus boosters, and HPV vaccines. It's best to consult with a healthcare provider to determine the specific immunizations needed based on age and individual circumstances.
No. Presuming you are not going deep into Africa on the cruise, you do not need any immunizations. As a matter of fact, I am getting ready to cruise Italy, Spain, Monte Carlo, Palmo-Mallorca, and Tunisia. No immunizations are needed for my travels. Happy sailing! Have a fabulous adventure!

It depends on what the immunization is for. Some immunizations take 1 shot; or 2 spaced out over weeks; or a series; or have a "booster" required.
