Vaccine Schedule

A vaccine schedule is a planned timeline guiding when children and adults should receive specific immunizations to protect against certain diseases. It ensures vaccines are given at ages when they’re most effective and when the immune system responds best. The schedule includes multiple doses over time, often starting in infancy and continuing through childhood and adulthood. Following this schedule helps build and maintain immunity, reducing the risk of illness, outbreaks, and complications. Healthcare providers customize the schedule based on individual health needs, but generally, it promotes optimal protection at the right ages.
