About

This policy statement describes the 2024 recommended childhood and adolescent immunization schedules, approved by multiple medical organizations including the CDC and AAP. Updates include the addition of monoclonal antibodies (e.g., RSV-mAb) to the schedules, new vaccines (e.g., PCV20), and revised recommendations for COVID-19, pneumococcal, and other vaccines. The schedules feature tables for age-specific, catch-up, and medical condition-based immunizations, along with detailed notes and an appendix on contraindications. A new addendum summarizes recent Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) updates. These schedules aim to guide healthcare providers in vaccine administration and ensure optimal protection for children and adolescents.
