Hi everyone.This question I am asking on behalf of everyone.Please answer as many Doctors and experience persons can
Do Government provided and private hospital selling vaccines are of same quality or not? If both are same why some doctors and parents are suggesting to get the child vaccinated in private hospitals?
second question is, Do DTaP (painless)and DTwP(painful) are equally effective or not? Because I heard from some doctors and read some research papers saying DTwP vaccine immuntiy lasts longer than immunity created by DTap vaccine.
Please answer this questions generously.

Accepted Answer

Government hospitals follows national immunisation schedule which includes all the necessary vaccinations that shoulda be given to each and every baby all over the country..these vaccines provides immunity against more than 90% deadly infections..while other vaccines are not included because of availability and affordability issues..
this schedule provides a uniformity in the country..and these are atleast vaccines which should be given to each and every baby..
While, private practitioners do give options for vaccines other than the vaccines given in national immunisation schedule like pneumococcal vaccine, typhoid, HPV vaccine, Rota virus, influenza..some vaccines are given only in special or high risk conditions like meningococcal vaccine..
these vaccines are also recommended by Indian academy of Pediatrics and are beneficial for babies…
