Vaccination
Hi,
My son has got only government vaccinations which are provided in government hospitals.
He is now 14 months old.
I want to know what other vaccinations can be given now to him other then government vaccines.
What are mandatory vaccination that should be given to prevent from any type of illness.
What would be the impact of missed, non mandatory vaccines?
Any suggestions for now?

Government vaccination schedule includes essential vaccines which are part of national significance.It usually doesn't include flu vaccine, varicella vaccine, Pneumococcal vaccine and Typhoid vaccine at your baby's age

Check with your local pediatrician for coverage. Getting these vaccines is good for long term health benefits

At 14 moths of age, besides government vaccines.. the baby should hv received mmr, typhoid, Cp, pneumococcal, and flu. All of these are relevant and important in the Indian context..depending on your state, availability of vaccine etc .. what is ultimately given also varies.
Would suggest u meet your paediatrician to sort out the issues.
Next Steps
Check with yr paediatrician.
