My baby just finished her first dose of Pneumococcal Vaccine which cost so much 5,000 php(which is almost a $100, but if its for her protection its ok for me to spend that much. Next of is the Measles Vaccine. Its her protection against Measles.
A short info about measles is that, Measles is the most deadly of all childhood rash/fever illnesses. The disease spreads very easily, so it is important to protect against infection. To prevent measles, children (and some adults) should be vaccinated with the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine. Two doses of this vaccine are needed for complete protection. Children should be given the first dose of MMR vaccine at 12 to 15 months of age. The second dose can be given 4 weeks later, but is usually given before the start of kindergarten at 4 to 6 years of age.
