Recommendations of the Standing Committee on Vaccination (STIKO) at the Robert Koch Institute/Effective

These STIKO vaccination recommendations were endorsed during the 77th and 78th STIKO meetings and are considered enacted upon their publication on 25 August 2014. This 2014 version replaces the previous STIKO vaccination recommendations published in August 2013 in Epidemiologisches Bulletin (Epid. Bull.) 34/2013 of the Robert Koch Institute (RKI). The scientific rationale for the modified STIKO recommendations will be available in Epid. Bull. 35/2014 and 36/2014, and on the RKI website (www.stiko.de/en).
