The list of free vaccinations has a new item. It is vaccination against Respiratory syncytial virus (RS virus) for pregnant women.
Vaccination against whooping cough for pregnant women is still on the list. Vaccination against whooping cough, diphtheria, tetanus and polio for people under 18 years of age still applies. So does HPV vaccination of girls aged 12 to 18.
Because a new item has been added, the two HPV items for boys have been given new numbers. The item about boys who turn 12 on 1 July 2019 or later now has number 10. The item about boys born in 2005 now has number 11.
