Parent vaccine FAQs: Delay in vaccine - can it cause a problem

Question : 
The vaccination for my son, in India, due in the 9th month has not yet been taken. Now he is 10 months old. We are planning to give the vaccination this month itself. Will the delay cause any problems?

A: There is NO problem in giving the vaccine at the age of 10 months. 
The delay will not cause any problems in the future. However, please remember that any delay in the vaccines can cause your child to have an increased risk of suffering from the disease against which the vaccine is supposed to give protection,
Regards
