These vaccines are mandatory and it is already delayed.
If your baby has received MMR at 9 months, it can be delayed by 4 weeks.
Kindly enquire at the PHC whether any specific instructions you need to follow prior to taking the baby for vaccination.
Avoid touching any surfaces at the PHC. Carry a change of clothes or wrap him in a cloth. After vaccination, change his clothes or give him a bath as soon as you get home.
