Vaccines are essential to protect children from serious and potentially life-threatening diseases. Following an appropriate immunization schedule ensures that children receive the necessary vaccines at the right time for optimal protection.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the United States annually updates the recommended immunization schedule for children and adolescents up to 18 years of age. This schedule outlines the specific ages at which each vaccine should be administered—from birth through adolescence—and includes information on booster doses and catch-up recommendations in case of delays.

It is crucial that healthcare professionals and parents regularly consult this schedule to ensure children are up to date with their vaccinations and to prevent outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases.
