Due to high risk of rapid spread in major hospital/ busy clinics, vaccinations to be postponed. Pediatrician can give by chance already you have gone to clinic as it is first primary dose against 6 risky infections. As per instructions given by experts, vaccinations can not be refused if already inside the consultation room. If you are safe & easy to travel to your doctor & doctor agrees on phone, it is your choice. However, subsequent doses can be postponed by 4-8 weeks depending on lockdown. Please decide on this.

You can wait for next 2wks. Going out can risk you and your child with COVID more than side effects of some delay in vaccination.
