Request to suggest Vaccines
Dear Sir, My kid is 5.5 years old. Initially we took Govt vaccines and from outside we took below mentioned vaccines
1) Hepatitis A ( one dose on 4th year and second dose not yet taken )
2) Chickenpox ( First dose on 2nd year and second dose on 4th year )
3) Typhoid ( First dose on 2nd year and second dose on 4th year and third dose is planned for 2020 )
Request you to suggest vaccines that we skipped ( Ex : Pneumococcal, Meaningococcal and missed dose of HEPT A) , so that we can take them now 😊. Please see attached sheets of vaccines

Please take the Hepatitis A missed dose soon though ideally it should have been given within one year of first dose . This time take conjugate typhoid vaccine which offers long term protection and doesn’t have to be given every three years . Meningococcal will be necessary only during outbreak . Don’t forget to give TD & other boosters at 10 yrs of age . Also get the IPV given if it was not done already .
