The vaccination calendar is based on the Preventive Vaccination Program. It contains current information on the implementation of vaccinations for a given year. We find in it, among others dates of subsequent vaccinations for children and adolescents up to 19 years of age and indications for their implementation. Check out the current vaccination calendar for 2019.
From January 2019, a new, updated Protective Vaccination Program (PSO) came into force. In the new vaccination schedule, several changes have been introduced, for example regarding vaccination dates and indications for vaccination. Check the current vaccination calendar.
What does the vaccination calendar cover?
The vaccination schedule changes depending on the recommendations in the PSO. The final form of PSO is announced at the end of October as the Statement of the Chief Sanitary Inspector. We find in it, among others a list of compulsory vaccinations, which are performed according to the vaccination schedule until the age of 19.
Vaccinations included in the vaccination calendar are obligatory and financed by the National Health Fund. The calendar includes vaccines against tuberculosis, hepatitis B, diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, polio, measles, mumps, rubella, pneumococcus, varicella and the invasive Haemophilus influenzae type B (Hib) infection.
Vaccination calendar – changes for 2019
Changes in the PSO also resulted in changes in the calendar of compulsory vaccinations according to age:
- Vaccination of newborns against tuberculosis – according to the new vaccination schedule, the baby is to be vaccinated before it is discharged home. Previously, the child was to be vaccinated against tuberculosis and hepatitis B within 24 hours after birth or at any other possible date before being discharged home. Shifting the second dose of the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine from age 10 to age 6 – this change aims to protect children before they start school. It is also a direct effect of the epidemiological situation of measles in Europe.
- Changes in compulsory vaccinations of premature babies against pneumococci – from this year on, the vaccination schedule recommends a schedule of 4 doses of the primary vaccination (3 doses of primary vaccination and 1 booster dose) also for children from 2 months to 12 months of age, born before the end of the 37th week of pregnancy or with low birth weight below 2500 g.
- Changes for children vaccinated with the “6 in 1” vaccine – if a child is to receive the highly combined “6 in 1” vaccine, he or she should receive one dose of hepatitis B vaccination on day 1 of life due to the risk of HBV infection.
- Changes in patients with advanced kidney disease with glomerular filtration below 30 ml / min and on dialysis patients – booster doses of vaccines should be administered according to the manufacturer’s and doctor’s recommendations, if the concentration of anti-HBs antibodies drops below 10 IU / l (protective level).
The 2019 vaccination calendar provides the following vaccines for children and adolescents:
- 1 year of age – vaccination for hepatitis B and tuberculosis
- 2 months of age (around 7-8 weeks of age) – the second dose of hepatitis B and vaccine for diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough and HiB
- 3-4 months of life (after approx. 6-8 weeks from the previous one) – a third dose of hepatitis B and a vaccine for diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis and HiB + polio
- 5-6 months of age (after 6-8 weeks from the previous one) the fourth dose of vaccination against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio and HiB
- 7 months – the third dose of hepatitis B vaccine
- 13-14 months – measles, mumps and rubella vaccines
- 16-18 months – another dose of the vaccine against diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, polio and HiB
- 6 years of age – vaccination for polio, diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough + measles, mumps and rubella
- 14 years of age – vaccination against diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough
- 19 years of age (or the last year of schooling) – diphtheria and tetanus vaccine.
In addition, the vaccination calendar also includes mandatory vaccinations for children who are at risk, such as vaccination against chickenpox.
