The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released a few updates last week to its child and adolescent immunization schedule.
One update was the addition of COVID-19 vaccines to the child and adolescent immunization schedule.
The schedule, which is posted on the CDC’s website, recommends that children between six months of age and 18 years old should receive two doses of the primary series between four and eight weeks apart — followed by a booster dose at least eight weeks later.
