A. meningococcal vaccine is an optional vaccine. it is usually given either at 9 months of age and one year of age as a a 2 dosage regimen or you can go for a single dosage after two years of age. your doctor is the best person to tell you whether it is required by your child or not. my personal advice would be that if you can afford the vaccine you should get the child vaccinated for any disease for which vaccine is available japanese encephalitis is a disease which is very common in eastern and central india as well as half of eastern part of south india. this disease is slowly spreading throughout india. you have to contact your local pediatrician who will tell you whether this disease is endemic in your state or not. so if it is endemic it isx advisable to go for this vaccine and if it is not endemic you can keep it as an optional vaccine
