Switching to Dtap
My son at 6 weeks got vaccine with Dtap. Now I heard from people saying that it's immunity is not long lasting. Is this true? Or False
At 10, 14 weeks and booster dose can I switch to dtwp i.e whole cell pertusis vaccine

No ma’am, you cannot switch the vaccine
Don’t worry it provides protection since booster doses are given at 15 months and 4 to 6 years also
