Pediatric immunization schedule

The AAP's annual immunization schedule for children and adolescents in the United States, released in January 2026 through AAP Red Book Online. The academy states that it no longer endorses the CDC childhood and adolescent schedule, so the AAP and federal schedules currently differ.

Vaccination policy in Europe is set nationally rather than EU-wide. ECDC maintains this reference tool, developed with MesVaccins.net, so clinicians can look up and compare the official childhood and adult immunisation schedules of individual EU/EEA countries by country, disease or age group.

• Published by ECDC and covers national immunisation schedules across EU/EEA member states, including routine recommendations and guidance for specific population groups. source
• ECDC notes the tool may not capture every nuance of national policy and advises consulting the relevant national health authority for definitive guidance. source
