A. it is important to maintain a gap of at least one month or around 4 weeks between any two vaccination dates which are given. the doctor may give multiple vaccines at the same time on the same day. but the next group of vaccines should be given only after a delay of 4 weeks for proper immunity development there are multiple vaccines available in the market. government setup gives many vaccines. there are many vaccines which is not available at the government setup and you should get them at private setup (discuss with yourdr) eg. typhoid, hepatitis a, chickenpox, flu vaccine, japanese encephalitis vaccine, meningococcal vaccine, mmr vaccine, cholera vaccine. many times vaccines are region specific and according to the disease those vaccines has to be taken after consulting your doctor. kindly meet your doctor who will tell you which vaccinations you can take fodr your child which is not available at the government setup . also there are painless vaccine option available at private setup.
