Vaccine News

A new vaccine has been launched to offer babies a five-in-one vaccine.

DTaP/IPV/Hib, the new five-in-one vaccination for babies has been introduced in the UK in 2004. While the vaccine is "new" to the UK it is not a new vaccine. The vaccine has already been used in routine childhood vaccination programmes in Canada since 1997. The vaccine will give young children immunity against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, Hib and polio infections.
