Guardian of a 6 yr 5 m old boy3 years ago

Q.

My son is 3 years old. His doctor is saying he is due for Typhoid booster dose, which is not mentioned in his vaccine book. As per book his typhoid vaccine is due on 5th and 8th years. Is it ok if will go only with the vaccine mentioned in the book? I m afraid that unnecessary vaccine might be not good for kids health. Please suggest. #Vaccination
