About Immunization
Hi Doc,
My daughter is 1 year and we got the Pneumococcal vaccine first dose at 1 year, I need to know how many doses of the same are required if we start it at 1 year of age. In the same way we had not got the influence vaccine given until now, need to know how many to be given if started now.
Thanks in advance.

If your child is less than 1 year old then 2 doses of PCV VAACINE 2 months apart and then third dose after 6 months
If started after 1 year then 2 doses 3 months apart
If started after 2 years then only one dose of PCV 13
Influenza vaccine is 2 doses one month apart initially and then one dose every year
