The CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) began its December 4 and 5, 2025, meeting today, launching two full days of presentations, public comment and planned votes that could reshape how infants and children receive hepatitis B (HepB) vaccines and other routine immunizations.
Vaccine advisers to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention may vote this week to make a major change to the childhood vaccine schedule, potentially delaying a dose of the hepatitis B vaccine given to newborns by weeks or even years.
