Staying up to date with vaccines is one of the best ways to protect your health and prevent serious disease. These immunization schedules show when children, teens and adults should receive recommended vaccines. Following the right schedule ensures you or your child gets the best protection at the right time—whether it’s a routine childhood shot, a booster or a vaccine needed later in life.
The versions of these immunization schedules have been adopted by the American Academy of Family Physicians. The CDC’s 2025 immunization schedules, which are not endorsed by the AAFP, can be found here.
