Yes earlier Typhoid PCV only was available so it was at 2 yes and later on every 3 tears once. But now Typhoid TCV is available which can be given at 9 months 1 at dose and @ 2years 2 nd dose which will enough for life time.

Indeed. Typhoid conjugate vaccine is a new development,and is advised at 9-12 months of age. The older version is a polysaccharide one,and can be given only at 2 and 5 years of age.
