2023 Recommended Immunization Schedules Now Online
The 2023 Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) Recommended Immunization Schedules were released last week. In collaboration with their healthcare partners, CDC has updated versions of the recommended U.S. immunization schedules for children and teens as well as for adults. The 2023 schedules include the addition of the COVID-19 primary vaccine series and links to the latest guidance on booster dose vaccination in all populations. Additional changes to the schedules include new or updated recommendations for influenza and pneumococcal vaccines, the addition of a new vaccine for measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR), and a new vaccine for Hepatitis B. Several additional formats of the schedules, including parent-friendly versions, are available on the CDC Immunization Schedules website.
