Pcv booster need to take or not?
Hello Doctor,
My son's age is 15 months. Need to take vaccines - MMR-2, vericella and pcv booster. One doctor suggested to take all 3 vaccines. But another doctor suggested -"if baby took all the vaccines before 15 months then no need to take pcv booster".
What to do Doctor? Why is PCV booster needed for?
Please suggest. Thank you.
