The 2020 child and adolescent immunization schedule released earlier this week includes changes to recommendations for hepatitis A and tetanus, diphtheria and acellular pertussis (Tdap) vaccines. In addition, the terms “individual clinical decision-making” and “clinical discretion” have been replaced with “shared clinical decision-making.”
The 2020 schedule has been approved by the Academy, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the American Academy of Family Physicians and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.
View the schedule on the CDC website.
