Vacunas en la población inmigrante adulta

In general, adult immigrants should receive the same vaccination doses as the native population. The mumps, measles, and rubella (MMR) vaccine, the inactivated polio vaccine, and the adult tetanus diphtheria toxoid (Td) vaccine are recommended. Other vaccines such as the influenza, pneumococcal, and Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) vaccines should be used following the recommendations for the native population. Correct management of the immunization card is especially important in the immigrant population.
