Accepted Answer

Vaccination needs to be given to child only when the present covid situation becomes favourable and under full safety precautions.if there is any delay it will not have any adverse effect but
mandatory vaccinations specially under one year of age should be on the priority list  followed by optional vaccine later on .due to strict pandemic situation,in such condition most important vaccination should be given on priority which your doctor will decide.
Influenza vaccine should be given to children above 6 months of age in this season if not given to avoid unnecessary hospitalisatiof and other risk factors because of flu infection.it is repeated after one year as a booster dose.
