Babies, Toddlers, Children, Teens: Are Your Vaccines Up to Date?
California data show that vaccination of children has decreased during the COVID-19 pandemic. As our children return to school, childcare, camps and social activities, other diseases have a chance to spread. Help kids return safely to normal by protecting them from vaccine-preventable diseases like measles, pertussis, and chicken pox.
Parents: Contact your child’s healthcare provider for an appointment that includes catching up on CDC-recommended vaccines. Visit our Schools and Child Care page for more information on school immunization requirements and where to go if your child doesn’t have a primary care provider.
Healthcare Providers: Contact families of children who have fallen behind on their immunization schedule to provide needed immunizations. Refer to the CDC catch-up schedule for children who are behind on routine immunizations. Review this recent Vax Facts for additional information about the new process for medical exemptions and other school immunization resources.
