What should I do if a child less than 1 year of age has missed doses?
- Complete the full primary course of immunizations without delay (doses already given do not need to be repeated). This consists of:
- Three doses of DTaP/IPV/Hib spaced at least 1 month apart.
- Two doses of PCV spaced 2 months apart.
- Two doses of MenC spaced 1 month apart.
- For the latest information on announcements about catch-up recommendations from the chief medical officer, see www.immunisation.nhs.uk.
