What changes are needed?

• Need to have separate schedules• Need to consolidate footnotes• Need to revise recommendations pertaining

to individual vaccines

The CDC style timetables:

• Three schedules • 0 through 6 years • 7 through 18 years • “Catch-up” – 4 months through 6 years – 7 through 18 years

• Each schedule should have separate footnotes

• For infants born to HBsAg-positive mothers: • Administer HepB vaccine + 0.5 mL of

hepatitis B immune globulin (HBIG) within 12 hours of birth.

• These infants should be tested for HBsAg and antibody to HBsAg 1 to 2 months after receiving the last dose of the series.
