AB  - PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The current article reviews recent literature related to 
      pediatric and adolescent vaccination, specifically focusing on social 
      determinants of under-immunization, expanding adolescent immunization rates, and 
      new recommendations surrounding the meningococcal serotype B vaccine (MenB). 
      RECENT FINDINGS: Vaccine refusals and vaccine-preventable diseases have been 
      rising in some parts of the world, and appear to be linked to household factors, 
      such as a family's socioeconomic status. Adolescents have lower immunization 
      rates than younger children. Newer vaccines targeted at adolescents, such as the 
      MenB vaccine, have yet to be widely accepted by pediatric providers, parents, and 
      patients. SUMMARY: Pediatric healthcare providers should attempt to increase 
      local immunization rates by vaccinating children at all eligible office visits 
      and utilizing electronic health record decision-support tools. Although the 
      number of families who choose not to vaccinate their children may be rising, 
      providers can be innovative (e.g. incorporate digital vaccine reminder systems) 
      and increase their familiarity with new vaccine recommendations to continue to 
      prevent serious vaccine-preventable diseases.
