PEDIATRIC VACCINATION & IMMUNIZATION

Newborn babies have an inadequate immune system, putting them at high risk of infection and preventing them from responding to most vaccines. Vaccines are antigenic plans that are used to create active immunity to a disease and avoid infection by any natural or "wild" pathogens. Many vaccines need different dosages to achieve optimum efficacy or to aid in the recovery of a reaction that has blurred over time. Tetanus Vaccine Boosters, for example, are recommended every ten years. Vaccine schedules are developed by government agencies or medical associations in order to achieve the highest degree of efficacy for a territory's necessary and prescribed vaccines while reducing the number of vaccines.
