In case you need this list—

 

Here are the shots needed for 19 through 59 years of age:

• Td or Tdap - Tetanus/diptheria/pertussis or get DT, DTP or DtaP and it will be accepted. The latest shot must be no longer than 10 years ago or you need a booster. In the UK they will give Revaxis which is Tetanus/diphtheria +polio. Adults don’t need polio for immigration but that’s the combo available in the UK. They don’t have a Tetanus and diphtheria only jab like Adacel given in the US.  
• MMR - (if born in 1957 or later)-Mumps/measles/rubella.  It's two doses in your life, but if you get the first dose, and 4 weeks haven't passed by your medical, they will waive the second dose for "insufficient time interval". If you only had one dose as a child, get a second one before the medical.
• Varicella - Not routinely given in the UK. A history of having chickenpox excuses you from the shot. They take your word for it at the visa medical exam. They will also waive the shot in the UK for "not routinely available". 
• Influenza - Required during flu season only, October 1 through March 31.  If your medical is not during flu season, you don't need it. 
• Hepatitis B - required for all applicants up to 59 years old. 
• COVID-19 vaccine - Completely vaccinated with primary dose 1&2. No boosters required at this time.(New starting 1-Oct-2021).

Is that for IR-1 complete list? Cause i am getting my MMR and i found a clinic that can do HEP B and Hep A ( if needed) already had my influenza vaccine the prices are insane for all those medicals especially after you paying 380 for exam travel etc

Thank you for this very comprehensive list. It's probably the most useful of its kind on the internet!

 

I have one query though. My records indicate I had a single dose of MMR when I was a kid. According to the CDC schedule, one dose is sufficient: https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/schedules/hcp/imz/adult.html#note-mmr

 

Are people being asked to get a second dose, despite this?
