Main Street Pediatrics Vaccine Policy 2025
The providers of Main Street Pediatrics support the American Academy of Pediatrics vaccine guidelines.
We believe that vaccines are safe and promote the health and well-being of our community.
Our policy is to complete the initial childhood vaccine series by 2 years of age, and continue
scheduled immunizations through adolescence:
– Infants should begin vaccines by 3 months.
– The routine 2, 4, and 6 month vaccines (Hep B, DTaP, Polio, Hib, Prevnar, Rotavirus) should be
completed by 12 months.
– The routine 12, 15, and 18 month vaccines (MMR, Prevnar, Varicella, Hep A, DTaP, Hib) should
be completed by age 2.
– Older children should receive necessary boosters (MMR, Varicella, DTaP, Polio) before age 6.
– We strongly recommend the HPV vaccination starting at age 9.
– We strongly recommend an annual influenza vaccination.
We understand you may have questions or concerns about this policy.
Please feel free to contact your primary care provider with any questions you may have.
