Vaccines protecting against many childhood diseases are required before a child’s second birthday. It is recommended that you bring your child to the doctor at age 2 months, 4 months, 6 months, 12 months, and between 15 and 18 months (five visits), so that he/she can receive the following:

  • vaccination against diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis (whooping cough) “Dtap”
  • vaccination against polio
  • vaccination against measles, mumps, rubella “MMR”
  • vaccination against varicella (chickenpox)
  • vaccination against hepatitis A & B

 

For children under 60 months (5 years) of age, vaccinations against haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib), a major cause of spinal meningitis, are also required.

Additional vaccine doses are needed prior to kindergarten entry (at 4-6 yr old), in early adolescence and in adulthood.
