Pcv vaccine
Hello,
My son is in his 10th week.I have missed the second dose of my child's PCV13 vaccine because of the unavailability of the vaccine.
So, can I take both the doses of PCV13 on the 14th week or I can take one dose in the the 14th week and the other in the 18th week?
My paediatrician was telling me that we can take both the doses at the same time as this vaccine should be taken with the other scheduled vaccine and should not be taken alone in the 18th week.
Please help me in answering this doubt.
