Red Book 2024: Report of the Committee on Infectious Diseases (Red Book Report of the Committee on Infectious Diseases) 33rd Edition
For more than 85 years health care professionals have “referred to the Red Book” for trustworthy guidance on pediatric infectious disease prevention, management, and control.
The new 33rd edition continues this tradition of distinction with the latest clinical guidance on the manifestations, etiology, epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment of more than 200 childhood infectious diseases.
Find the latest information about vaccines, emerging novel diseases, diagnostic modalities, and treatment recommendations from the combined expertise of the CDC, the FDA, the NIH, and hundreds of physician contributors.
Red Book guidance spans far beyond the pediatric practice to include family medicine, emergency medicine, public health, school health, and other medical specialties.
