Neonatal Vaccination

Neonatal vaccination refers to the administration of vaccines to newborns shortly after birth. These vaccines help protect infants from serious diseases, such as hepatitis B and, in some cases, tuberculosis. Immunizing infants early is crucial because their immune systems are developing, making them more vulnerable to infections. The vaccinations follow recommended schedules to ensure timely protection as they grow. By vaccinating newborns, we not only safeguard their health but also contribute to community immunity, helping to prevent outbreaks of infectious diseases.
