Influenza vaccine:

A possible time frame for modifying influenza vaccination recommendations is as follows: in 2007-2008, expand recommendations to include all school-age children 5 to 18 years old, address critical issues and develop roll-out plans.

By 2010, recommendations could be expanded to include household contacts and caregivers of school-age children. After the appropriate surveillance studies are done and the need is assessed, ACIP might move to a universal vaccination recommendation in 2012.
