you are right that IAP has recommended a slot for typhoid conjugate vaccine at about 9 or 10 months of age. it is quite safe and easily available by many trade names like pedatyph etc. manufacturers instructions for dose and booster should be followed and it will go a long way to prevent typhoid in less than 2 year age group.
