The newborn immunization schedule is a vital guide for parents to ensure their baby receives timely protection against serious diseases. It starts at birth with vaccines like BCG (for tuberculosis), Hepatitis B, and OPV (oral polio vaccine). Over the next few months, additional doses are given for DPT (diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus), rotavirus, and pneumococcal infections. Following this schedule helps build your baby’s immunity early in life, reducing the risk of severe illness. Regular vaccinations also support community health by preventing disease outbreaks.
