Hello Immunization Partners,
Please share the following information with providers in your jurisdiction.
On November 21, 2024, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released the 2025 Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) Recommended Immunization Schedules. These schedules are published annually to consolidate and summarize updates to ACIP recommendations on vaccinations for children, adolescents, and adults and to assist health care providers in implementing current ACIP recommendations. Earlier availability of the 2025 schedules is part of CDC’s efforts to better support immunization professionals and improve timely implementation of new recommendations.
The 2025 recommended immunization schedules are available on the CDC Immunization Schedules website and summarize ACIP recommendations, including several changes from the 2024 immunization schedules on the cover page, tables, notes, and appendix. Health care providers are advised to use the tables, notes, and appendix together to determine recommended vaccinations for patient populations. These schedules are effective immediately and will be published in an MMWR and reflected in CDC’s print and digital resources in the coming months. For more information on the changes to the schedule, please see: Combined Immunization Schedules from the ACIP meeting, October 26, 2024.
For further guidance on the use of each vaccine, including any changes that might occur after annual publication of the child, adolescent, and adult immunization schedules, health care providers are referred to the respective ACIP Vaccine Specific Recommendations. Additional formats of the schedules, as well as instructions for ordering hard copies are available on the CDC Immunization Schedules website.
