National Immunisation Schedules

Different countries and regions may be affected by different diseases. In some cases, countries may also be affected by a different strain of the same disease. Thus , the National Immunisation Schedule may differ from one country to the next. Each country will design and implement their National Immunisation Program(NIP) based on the World Health Organisation(WHO) Expanded Programme on Immunisation(EPI) and guidelines.

If you like to know more about the mandatory vaccines in the NIPs of the countries we are present in, please select from below.
