Children may avail of the HSE Childhood vaccination programme in primary care from Medicentre.

More than one dose of the same vaccine is given in the first few years of a child’s life. The extra doses improve the antibody response and give better long term protection.

Booster doses of some vaccines are also given to school children to give better long term protection.
