Hello 🙂

Welcome to our August newsletter.

As I was updating the vaccinations list in our database, I thought about the fact that many more parents we speak to are choosing not to vaccinate their children, or to delay the schedule, or only take some of the vaccinations.

In the UK, the childhood vaccination schedule has had some big changes this year, with further changes to be implemented in 2026, including an extra (4th) dose of the 6-in-1 hexavalent vaccine (Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis, Polio, Haemophilus influenzae type B, and Hepatitis B) at 18 months along-side the 2nd dose of MMR, which has been moved forward from 3 years, 4 months. Additionally, the Varicella (Chicken Pox vaccine) may be added to the schedule in 2026. Thankfully, no COVID vaccines are on the UK children’s schedule.

Summary of Schedule Changes
AgePrevious ScheduleNew Schedule (from effective dates)
8 weeks1st DTaP/IPV/Hib/HepB, 1st MenB, 1st RotavirusNo change
12 weeks2nd DTaP/IPV/Hib/HepB, 1st PCV13, 2nd Rotavirus2nd DTaP/IPV/Hib/HepB, 2nd MenB, 2nd Rotavirus
16 weeks3rd DTaP/IPV/Hib/HepB, 2nd MenB3rd DTaP/IPV/Hib/HepB, 1st PCV13
1 yearHib/MenC, 2nd PCV13, 1st MMR, 3rd MenB2nd PCV13, 1st MMR, 3rd MenB (Hib/MenC removed)
18 monthsNot applicable4th DTaP/IPV/Hib/HepB, 2nd MMR (new appointment)
3y 4m2nd MMR, dTaP/IPVdTaP/IPV (2nd MMR moved to 18 months)

What are your thoughts on these schedule changes/additions, and how does this differ from your own country’s childhood schedule?

Around the world, people are still getting their COVID injections and, starting from early August in the UK, those (who are eligible) attending sexual health services will be offered vaccination against Gonorrhoea using an existing vaccine for Meningococcal B disease, 4CMenB which, according to NHS England, ‘means they could be protected from Gonorrhoea by up to 40%’. Whilst getting their Gonorrhea vaccine, eligible people will now also be offered Mpox, Hepatitis A and B and Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccinations.

Of course, the Control Group’s focus is on the COVID vaccines, but we also record information about reactions to other vaccines too – in fact, due to the pandemic era there are now huge numbers of individuals, organisations and groups studying the safety and efficacy of vaccinations and other pharmaceutical products, which is why it is remains essential to have control groups to compare outcomes with. Indeed, a recent Substack by James Lyons-Weiler, PhD cites the lack of control group as one of the reasons a recent Danish study hailing aluminium as a safe adjuvant in vaccines was critically flawed.

This is the reason why it is so important to have an ongoing, international cohort of people regularly recording their health outcomes ready to compare against any product taking cohort.


Have you got your Health Card?

A Health Card is a great way to keep important medical information to hand. You can add your health conditions, medications, supplements etc. to the card’s QR page, which makes it really useful when visiting health and wellness practitioners outside the medical system.

Simply scan the QR code.

It also serves as an ICE (In Case of Emergency) Card that can be scanned by emergency services to show information you choose to display, such as:

  • Blood type
  • Allergies
  • Health conditions
  • Current medications
  • Advanced Medical Decisions

The Health Card is available to all subscribing Associates.
