When can you say that your child is FULLY IMMUNIZED?

When can we really say that our child is FULLY IMMUNIZED? Well, according to the Department of Health, your baby must received all the mandatory vaccines from the time that they were born up until they turned 1 year old. In this way, its highly likely that they’re protected from serious and sometimes fatal diseases or illnesses brought by outbreaks. Here’s the list of all recommended vaccines as per mandated by the Department of Health: 1. Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) - It is best for your child to have the vaccine at birth. 2. Hepatitis B vaccine - Protects against hepatitis B (infection of the liver). It is best for your child to have the vaccine at birth. 3. Pentavalent vaccine ((DPT) Diphtheria, Pertussis,Tetanus, Hepatitis B, Haemophilus Influenza Type b- should get one dose at each of these ages: 6 weeks, 10 weeks and 14 weeks. 4. Polio vaccine three doses - should get one dose at each of these ages: 6 weeks, 10 weeks and 14 weeks. 5. Inactive Polio Vaccine - given at 14 weeks 6.
