    CDC's 2010 Immunization schedules are now available for all. The main changes are:

    The last dose in the inactivated poliovirus vaccine series is now recommended to be administered on or after the 4th birthday and at least 6 months since the previous dose. In addition, if 4 doses are administered prior to age 4 years an additional (5th) dose should be administered at age 4 through 6 years.

    The hepatitis A vaccination of children older than 23 months for whom immunity against hepatitis A is desired is allowed.

    Revaccination with meningococcal conjugate vaccine is now recommended for children who remain at increased risk of meningococcal disease after 3 years (if the first dose was administered at age 2 through 6 years) or after 5 years (if the first dose was administered at age 7 years or older).

    The bivalent HPV vaccine for human papillomavirus (HPV) is available and recommended, and administration of quadrivalent HPV vaccine to males aged 9 through 18 years to reduce the likelihood of acquiring genital warts, is permissively recommended.

  • Forum locked 2009 Immunization Schedules
    Immunizations have succeeded in eradicating some very dangerous diseases, but it might be only a matter of short time before those disease are transferred back to us from a remote part of this world, unless we follow the immunization schedule recommended by the administration.

    You can read about immunization schedules here for all ages. If you have missed some shots, CDC has a catch up schedule too!

  • Forum locked 2009 H1N1 Flu
    Even though it seems not to be very threatening, there is a lot of concern about the H1N1 flu. The adminstration and the medical community are working hard to contain the flu and spread the information about preventing it. The parents on the other hand are getting more and more confused. Why?

    Participate in the discussion.

  • Seasonal Flu
    Even though the regular seasonal flu kills almost 250,000 people a year, no one seems to be as concerned as they are with the flu from the 2009 H1N1 virus!

    Is this because of the human psychology of fearing the unknown?

  • Avian Flu (Bird Flu)
    The bird flu virus normally does not infect humans, but that does not mean humans do not get infected by the avian flu virus. People who work closely with poultry have got infected. Up to now, the transmission of the avian flu virus from one human to another has been very rare and limited.

  • Forum locked Vaccines
    A vaccine is a preparation that contains weakened, dead or artificial antigens that when injected into the body stimulate the immune system to produce antibodies that can kill the real disease carrying antigens of the same type. Since the injected antigens are not capable to start an infection, vaccines are by and large safe.

  • Recalls in 2009
    Recalls are a firm's removal or correction of a marketed product that the FDA considers to be in violation of the laws it administers and against which the agency would initiate legal action, e.g., seizure. Recalls may be conducted on a firm's own initiative, by FDA request, or by FDA order under statutory authority.

    Market Withdrawals are a firm's removal or correction of a distributed product which involves a minor violation that would not be subject to legal action by the FDA, or which involves no violation.
