  1. Impact of Delayed Infant Vaccination on Health Outcomes On-time infant vaccination is crucial. It prevents vaccine-preventable diseases (VPDs). Delayed vaccination increases vulnerability to infections. Let's explore the impact of delayed vaccination schedules on infant health. We will also explore the importance of adherence to recommended schedules.

  2. Recommended Infant Vaccination Schedule (0-6 Months) Birth 2 Months 1 2 Hepatitis B (HepB) – 1st dose DTaP, Hib, IPV, PCV13, RV, HepB (2nd dose) 4 Months 6 Months 3 4 DTaP, Hib, IPV, PCV13, RV DTaP, Hib, PCV13, RV, HepB (3rd dose), and annual influenza This schedule is designed to give the best protection in first 6 months. It is critical to follow this for a strong immune system.

  3. Recommended Infant Vaccination Schedule (7-18 Months) 6-18 Months Annual influenza vaccination 12 Months MMR, Varicella, HepA, Hib (final dose), PCV13 (final dose) 15 Months DTaP (4th dose) 18 Months HepA (2nd dose, 6 months after 1st) Continued vaccination is vital. It ensures protection as infants grow. Schedules must be adhered to with precision.

  4. Increased Susceptibility to VPDs with Delayed Vaccination Measles Pertussis Pneumococcal Disease Unvaccinated children 9x more likely to be infected. Delayed DTaP associated with higher infection rates. Delayed PCV13 linked to increased hospitalization. Delaying vaccines heightens the risk. Infants become more vulnerable to severe infections.

  5. Health Outcomes Associated with Delayed Vaccination Hospitalization Risk Healthcare Costs Long-Term Complications Increased risk of hospitalization for VPDs. Higher costs due to treatment of preventable infections. Potential for long-term complications from VPDs. Delayed vaccination can lead to severe outcomes. These outcomes can affect infants' long-term well-being.
