- Meningitis vaccine also should be given to 13- to 18-year-olds who have not yet been vaccinated. Kids who were given their first dose between 13 and 15 years of age should receive a booster dose at 16 to 18 years of age. Children between the ages of 2 and 10 who have certain chronic illnesses will also need this vaccine, with a booster shot a few years later, depending on the age at which the first dose was given.
- Pneumococcal vaccines may be administered to children with immunocompromising conditions, such as asplenia or HIV infection, or other medical conditions, such as cochlear implant.
