Discovered purely by chance last week during a visit to the doctor that my nearly four year old ds should have had an immunization booster shot 6 months ago. There are two issues I need to ask advice about - we are off to Morocco next week, so best NOT to have the shot before we fly out? And am guessing it's not really very harmful to have this booster shot 6 months down the track? And did anyone get a letter advising of the need for this booster shot from their doctor?
