Hib Vaccine Available Again
Tuesday June 30, 2009
If you're one of many parents of toddlers who delayed getting the Hib vaccine due to the recent shortage there's good news. According to Dr. Vincent Iannelli, the Hib vaccine supply is up and the CDC is once again recommending that toddlers aged 12-15 months get the immunization. If you missed it, be sure to ask your health care provider at the next appointment if it's time for your toddler's booster.
My daughter is 23 months old. She just had shots this past Tuesday at our local health dept. They do not yet have the Hib vaccine available for toddlers, only newborns.
