My son is 5.5 years , we already gave MMR vaccination dosages at the age of 9 months and at the age of 5 years (i.e. gave second dosage in the month of Dec 16). Now there is campaign from the side of the government for MMR vaccination at his school. The vaccination program will start from tomorrow onwards. Can I give my child an extra dosage of the MMR , even after giving the scheduled vaccination. Please help.
Hi... Greetings from Chennai the government campaign is not for an extra MMR vaccine, but it is only for MR vaccine. You can happily go with the extra dose of the vaccination nothing to worry about it. The extra dose of MR vaccine which you are going to give will only help as a booster and increase the immunological memory of the kids immune system. Regards -
