The basic vaccinations identified in the Vaccination Certificate, from birth until the first grade, aim to protect children in the Kingdom and all target groups in the the community against diseases targeted by immunization, to maintain the Kingdom polio-free and to get rid of measles, rubella and mumps, as well as reducing the infection rates of other diseases targeted by immunization.
Within the framework of the keen interest shown by the Ministry of Health (MOH) to achieve these objectives and to remind families or parents of their children vaccination dates to follow them up, the Ministry herein presents the approved version of
National Immunization Schedule, with effect from January 1st, 2013.
