Babies are born with some immunity. But that immunity is not high enough to protect babies from all diseases. Mother milk contains antibodies that offer additional immunity to babies. Hence mother feed is recommended to babies. But this natural immunity is not enough to fight all diseases. Hence Vaccination is a must for every child.
Usually, a vaccine contains killed or weakened germs that are injected into a child’s body so that he/she can attain natural protection against that disease. The child’s immune system reacts to this germ or protein to create natural immunity against that kind of infection. These Vaccinations help to protect children from serious diseases. There are various life-threatening diseases that are prevented using vaccination.
Usually, Children are provided following vaccinations
- Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B
- OPV
- BCG
- Polio
- DPT
- Rota-virus
- Measles
- Tetanus
- Typhoid
Some of these vaccines require booster doses after fixed intervals usually mentioned on your baby’s vaccination card. Additionally, your doctor can recommend vaccination for additional vaccines depending on the prevalence of that disease in your local area, or the immunity of your child. Some pediatricians recommend flu shots annually for children to protect them from highly dynamic seasonal flu which usually evades immunity offered by vaccination after some time.
