The Polio guidelines are different, with the U.S. requiring 3 shots early (as opposed to 2 in Japan) and one at 4-6 years old, whereas Japan makes no recommendation of a Polio vaccine beyond 18 months.
Older teens need a second shot when they are 16 years old so they stay protected when their risk is the highest. Teens who got meningococcal vaccine for the first time when they were 13, 14, or 15 years old should still get the booster shot when they are 16 years old. If your older teen didnât get the meningococcal shot at all, you should talk to their doctor about getting it as soon as possible. Teens and young adults (16 through 23 year olds) may also be vaccinated with a serogroup B meningococcal vaccine (2 or 3 doses depending on brand), preferably at 16 through 18 years old.
