Pneumoccocal vaccine missed
Hello sir / mam
I want to ask for my 2months old baby girl.
We had 1st dose of Pneumoccocal vaccine at 6th week.
We want to opt out of this Pneumoccocal vaccine schedule to some reasons. Can we now skip the 2nd dose of Pneumoccocal vaccine?
Need your advice on the same.

Hello,
Yes, you can opt out from pneumoccocal vaccine.
Can restart later also, depending upon the baby age - number of injections would be decided.
Take care.

As it is covid season, it would be wise if you take all three doses. Rest is upto the parents. But doctors would recommend that you take it
