Starting in 2025, the vaccination schedule has been updated. As requested by the state secretary of the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport (VWS), the Health Council evaluated the vaccination schedule of the National Immunisation Programme to see if there was room for improvement. The Health Council provided an advisory opinion to retain all vaccinations and shift several vaccination times, to offer children even better protection. Below you can read about what was changed and why.

The DTaP vaccination protects pregnant women and their babies against diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough (pertussis). Pregnant women can get vaccinated from the 22nd week of the pregnancy up until delivery. That is why it is known as the 22-week vaccination. Although it is also called the maternal whooping cough vaccination, it is a combined vaccination against three diseases (DTaP).
