DRAFT Assignment:
General Recommendations on Immunization. MMWR.
February 8, 2002 / Vol. 51 / No. RR--2
This report is a revision of General Recommendations on Immunization
and updates the 1994 statement by the Advisory Committee on
Immunization Practices (ACIP) (CDC. General recommendations
on immunization: recommendations of the Advisory Committee
on Immunization Practices [ACIP]. MMWR 1994;43[No. RR-1]:1--38).
The principal changes include expansion of the discussion
of vaccination spacing and timing, recommendations for vaccinations
administered by an incorrect route, information regarding
needle-free injection technology, vaccination of children
adopted from countries outside the United States, timing of
live-virus vaccination and tuberculosis screening, expansion
of the discussion and tables of contraindications and precautions
regarding vaccinations, and addition of a directory of immunization
resources. These recommendations are not comprehensive for
each vaccine. The most recent ACIP recommendations for each
specific vaccine should be consulted for additional details.
This report, ACIP recommendations for each vaccine, and other
information regarding immunization can be accessed at CDC's
National Immunization Program website at http://www.cdc.gov/nip
(accessed October 11, 2001).
