There have been a few small differences between AAP and CDC recommendations since then. For example, the AAP has advised that children get HPV vaccinations starting at age 9; the CDC says that’s OK but has emphasized vaccinations at ages 11 and 12.

AAP published the new advice on Tuesday, saying it strongly recommends Covid shots for children ages 6 months to 2 years. Shots also are advised for children aged between 2-18 if

The American Academy of Pediatrics, in its immunization guidelines released Tuesday, recommended Covid-19 shots for all children ages 6 months through 23 months. Children in that age group are particularly vulnerable to severe Covid-19 infections and the vaccines would protect them from serious illness, the pediatrician group said.
