Pediatric Vaccination
My son have completed 18 months but he had not his vaccines for 15 months (MMR and Vericella). We visited a pediatrician and decided to take 15 months and 18 month vaccines together.
On the day of vaccination he gave PCV and MMR vaccines. And asked us to come after 2 days to take Vericella and rest of 18 month vaccine (Hib, Hep A, IPV) .
Is there any issue in taking these 2 vaccines two days after MMR and PCV vaccination?
Please help me with this.
