title: Infectious diseases and the immunizations of today and tomorrow.
abstract: For decades, health care providers have administered immunizations for common childhood infections. These have been given at predicted times according to an agreed-upon schedule. However, in the past decade, common immunizations have been changed, the number of immunizations has increased, and the schedule for administration of vaccines officially changes every January. In addition, as science continues to grow, new vaccines are being developed faster than ever before.
