POOJA KOTHARIExpecting Mom due in 1 month3 months agoA. Meningococcal vaccination is generally not part of the routine immunization schedule for all babies, including 9-month-olds. It is usually recommended for children who are at higher risk due to certain medical conditions, travel to areas where meningococcal disease is common, or during outbreaks.
If your doctor says it’s necessary only for specific children, they likely mean your baby may not need it unless there is a special reason. You can discuss your baby’s health, lifestyle, and risks with your pediatrician to decide if the meningococcal vaccine is needed. For most healthy babies, it is not mandatory but can be given if advised.
