DCs are 8 and 4. What vaccines are now available privately that they may have missed?

So Men B, obviously - is there anything else? Baby jabs seem to be much more comprehensive now than for DC1 but I presume rotavirus and flu etc is a seasonal thing (ie lasts one year) so not much point for older DC? Am considering Men B, the other Men one (ACWY?). Wondering about chickenpox. Anything else?

You could look at doing Hep A & B as well (there are a few different vaccines, but my kids had a combined one called Twinrix)

I could only find this article which might be useful. Best to take some advice too.

I've had dd done with men b and chicken pox. I am also considering the men acwy vaccine, but I think she might be getting that via the NHS when older anyway.

And if you are in a large city witj adiverse population, ypu could consider TB too.
