In his guest column on Saturday, Dr. Gary Goldbaum, director of the Snohomish Health District, stresses the importance of vaccinations in preventing many communicable diseases.

These clinics served the most needy and vulnerable residents of Snohomish County and their closure increases the possibility of future outbreaks of diseases like whooping cough.
