In the early 1950s, the United States administered four vaccines — diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis and smallpox. Children received 13 doses of four vaccines by the time they were two years old and not more than three vaccines in a single visit.

By the mid-1980s, there were seven vaccines — diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, measles, mumps, rubella and polio.

Children received 15 doses of seven vaccines by the time they were two years old and not more than four vaccines in a single visit.

Since the mid-1980s, many vaccines have been added to the schedule.

Today, children may receive as many as 37 doses of 14 vaccines by the age of two, and as many as eight vaccines in a single visit!

The United States recommends more vaccines than any country in world. The CDC recommends 48 doses of 14 vaccines by age six, and 69 doses of 16 vaccines by age 18.

The CDC also recommends an annual flu shot for all Americans from six months of age through year of death.

Outside of an occasional local outbreak, like the recent whooping cough epidemic in California that the media blew completely out of proportion, the diseases included on the vaccination schedule are actually stable in the 21st century United States.

According to Dr. Robert Sears, author of The Vaccine Book, the number of childhood cases of diseases included on the vaccine schedule, in the U.S. in 2007, was:

  • Pneumococus — approx. 10,000 cases a year
  • Diphtheria – 5 cases per year, 0 cases some years
  • Tetanus – 1 case per year in children under 5
  • Pertussis – approx. 10,000 cases a year
  • Hepatitus B – 30 cases in 1 year olds, 30 cases in 1-5 year olds
  • Rotavirus – 500,000 cases, 50,000 hospitalizations, 20-70 deaths
  • Polio – 0 cases since 1985
  • Measles – 50-100 cases a year
  • Mumps – 250 cases a year
  • Rubella – 250 cases a year
  • Chickenpox – 50,000 cases a year
  • Hepatitis A – 10,000 cases a year, most in children aged 5-14
  • Flu – Millions of cases
  • Meningococcal Disease – approx. 3000 cases a year
