Hello Sir, My daughter is 5 year's 10 months of age, So, second dose of varicella vaccine is due. Is this is the right age to give this vaccine second dose...?? Because some of the Paediatrician said to get it done in the 18th months of the child. But in the vaccine chart it is written between 4-6 years of age. Which age is correct kindly let me know Sir.
