Doubt about Vaccine date
My daughter annmary(1yr 10mon) next vaccination (typhoid vaccine) as per vaccination record is June (ie is 2 yrs). From the birth itself (5/6/16) we ate consulting doctor in Renai hospital and vaccinations are being taken from there. The last vaccine for hep A2 (18 mon) was taken on 31/1/18. Doctor wrote in the hospital immunization record book as the next vaccine ( typhoid vaccine) to be taken on April month. But in record book it is printed as vaccine to be taken at the age of 2yr.

Nowadays,typhoid vaccine is available in 2 forms,conjugate vaccine and polysaccharide vaccine.
The schedule is typhoid conjugate vaccine at 9-12 months of age,followed by polysaccharide one at 2 years.
As your child is almost 2,wait for second birthday and give CONJUGATE vaccine.
Repeat typhoid vaccination is given after 5th birthday,which should be polysaccharide one.
