Here is a list of vaccine they offer at govt clinics At birth: BCG, Heb,B 2 mnths: hexavalent vaccine (DTaP, hib, Hep.B, IPV) + prevenar 4 mnth: DPT, hib, Hep.B, OPV + prevenar 6 mnth: DPT, hib, Hep.B, OPV + prevenar 12 mnth: MMR chicken pox 18 mnth: DPT, Hib, OPV, Prevenar 5-6 yrs: DPT, OPV, MMR, chicken pox NB: CHicken pox is optional I dont think you can have th MMR separated here. As we go to private for vaccines, DS is also going to have hep A vaccine at 15 months.
