tuberculosis: on the third-fifth day;

measles, mumps, rubella: first dose at 12 months, second dose at six years;

You can view the vaccination calendar here and refer to it..

Check when and what vaccine was last given to the child. If in doubt, contact your family doctor to understand this important information.. Also tell the doctor which of the required vaccinations your child has missed, and work out a plan of action together.. If you have Form 063/o (Prophylactic Immunization Card), show it to your doctor.

Even if your family was forced to move to another settlement, access to medical care for displaced persons is guaranteed, including routine vaccination. You need to go to the nearest medical facility providing primary care. The contact center of the National Health Service of Ukraine will be able to suggest the phone number and address of the nearest primary institution. Call 16-77 on working days from 9:00 to 18:00. For security reasons, dashboards on the NSZU website are disabled.
