Count the Doses Left in a Vaccine Series

A vaccine series is easy to lose track of once the first dose is months in the past.

What this guide helps you do

Count the doses still needed in a series and the days until the next dose is allowed, from numbers your provider gives you.

Who this guide is for

Parents and adults tracking a multi-dose vaccine series from their clinic or pharmacy record.

Use the source document or official route that applies to your situation. This guide does not contact another person or verify external information.

Steps

  1. Get the record

    Open your provider or pharmacy record. Use it as the source for every number below.

  2. Count the doses

    Write the number of doses in the series and the number you have already received.

  3. Find the minimum gap

    Ask your provider for the minimum days between doses for your series and age.

  4. Count the days

    Count the days since your last dose. The gap left is the minimum minus those days.

  5. Book with the provider

    Call your provider with the result. They confirm the schedule, the timing, and any exceptions.

Worked example

A series has 3 doses, you have had 1, and 60 days have passed since that dose with a 28-day minimum gap. That leaves 2 doses, and the next is allowed now.

Use your own source and details. The example is not a record about a real person or organization.
