A. Sir I didn’t get clear reply, it’s further confusing me. May be I have not put up clearly. As per chart attached Pneumococcal three doses are to be given, 6 weeks 10 weeks 14 weeks. You are saying 5 doses please let me know when to give 5 doses. My query is 6 weeks we gave Pneumococcal Prevenar-13. 10 weeks we didn’t give 14 weeks can we give now...??? After this shall we give more doses of Pneumococcal???

A. total ideally 5 doses are given .Immunization can be done if feasible for primary vaccination that is less then 1 yr of baby . But can be delayed for 14 days to 1 month for other vaccines . No problem in that .
