Vaccination is an important measurement to preserve the health present and future of the baby; collective scale, it makes it possible to take part in the progressive reduction in the number of people reached until eradication of the disease. In France, certain vaccinations are obligatory, others are very strongly recommended. The list of vaccinations is recapitulated in the health record of the child, where each vaccination carried out will be noted.
Before 1 month: BCG.
The BCG is vaccination against tuberculosis. It isn’t from now on more obligatory, but on the other hand is strongly recommended in the children living in an environment at the high risk of tuberculosis (newborn in a country of strong endémie tubercular patient, child in which at least one of the parents is originating in one of these countries, alive child under unfavourable housing conditions…, child residing in Guyana and island of france).
Only one injection is made, no recall is not required. At the not vaccinated and judged children at risk can profit from the BCG until at 15 years age.
From 2 months: DTCPHib vaccines, hepatitis B and peumocoque
This is a vaccination against the diphteria, tetanus, the poliomyelitis, the whooping-cough, the haemophilus influenzae, hepatitis B (we can use a vaccine ” six in one” – hexavalent), and another vaccination against the pneumococcus.
The DTP (diphteria-tetanus-poliomyelitis) is an obligatory vaccination, the others are recommended.
The vaccine consists of 3 injections in one month of interval, then a recall one year after (a little different programming for the vaccine against hepatitis B).
Recall DTP alone is then necessary the every 5-6 years up to 18 years, then every 10 years.
About vaccination against hepatitis B… If the mother contracted the virus (hiv-positive individual for hepatitis B), vaccine against hepatitis B will be done at the birth. Otherwise, it is recommended to do it as soon as possible (as of 2 months), because the myeline (nervous fabric which is touched in the multiple sclerosis) is not yet completely formed; thus early vaccination crosses short to any discussion concerning the risk of neurological complication. In any case, it is judicious to do it before adolescence, before the first sexual relations. It is necessary to make 2 injections in one month of interval, third between 5 and 12 months afterwards.
From 12 months: ROR + recall hepatitis B
The first dose of the vaccine against measles, the mumps and rubella (ROR) is recommended at 12 months age and a second injection between 13 and 24 months.
Vaccine ROR for the children living in community is possible as of 9 months. A recall with the vaccine antipneumococcic is recommended between 12 and 15 month.
Around 16-18 month: DTCPHib
DTCPHib: 1st recall; vaccine DTP is obligatory. Vaccine against hepatitis b: third injection (between 5 and 12 months after the second injection). Hold up to date your vaccines or those children by consulting the calendar of vaccinations 2007.
