Does a child need to have multiple shots during one visit?
A. The infant immunization schedule, recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), calls for the administering of three to four shots at various check-ups throughout early childhood. The recommended schedule can be altered, such as giving two shots at one visit and two at a second visit a few weeks later, if parents are particularly concerned. The most important element is to make sure your child is immunized.
