A. is it pcv 2nd dose is important for my baby boy ? doctors telling we will give only pcv dose 1in 6 weeks and pcv dose 3 in 14 weeks so that we have given dose 1 in 6 weeks now my baby is 10 weeks old, as per immunization chart still we don't have given pcv dose 2 apart from that we have given remaining vaccines so we are confusing we need to give pcv dose 2 or not please suggest me sir.

A. yes can give pcv which also stands for pneumococcal vaccine is a very important vaccine and is mandatory for all children. at present the vaccine is that much important that the indian government is giving it now free of cost in regular vaccination schedule. meet your doctor who will tell you the schedule for pneumococcal va ccine. even if it was missed previously you can go for it now also. this vaccine prevents infection due to pneumococcal bacteria which can affect the brain throat chest the child
