Are immunisations required only if the infections are widely prevalent where the child is living?
This is not true because it is important to immunise your child even if the infection is not widely prevalent. The reason is that if fewer children are immunised, they will contact the infection and pass it on to others and hence a less commonly found infection may turn into an epidemic. Hence, the immunisation program should be followed not only for your child’s benefit but also for the benefit of the community.
