Vaccinations are a vital part of keeping your child healthy and protected from serious, preventable diseases. At Ankura Hospital, we provide a comprehensive pediatric vaccination program that safeguards children from illnesses like measles, mumps, rubella, polio, hepatitis, influenza, and many other infections. Timely immunization helps strengthen your child’s immune system, reduces the risk of complications, and contributes to the overall well-being of your little one.

Understanding Pediatric Vaccinations

Pediatric vaccinations are essential for building immunity in children against serious diseases such as measles, polio, hepatitis, diphtheria, and influenza. Timely vaccination not only protects your child but also contributes to community immunity, reducing the spread of infections. Our pediatricians carefully assess your child’s health and vaccination history to design a personalized immunization schedule.

Common Vaccines and Conditions Prevented

Our vaccination program covers a wide range of preventable conditions:

Hepatitis B & A: Protects the liver from viral infections.
Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis (DTaP): Prevents respiratory infections and complications.
Polio: Safeguards against paralysis caused by poliovirus.
Measles, Mumps, Rubella (MMR): Protects against viral infections that can cause serious complications.
Influenza: Prevents seasonal flu and related complications.
Varicella (Chickenpox): Protects against a common childhood infection.
Pneumococcal & Rotavirus vaccines: Protect against severe infections of the lungs and intestines.

Early Protection: Timely vaccination prevents serious illness and hospitalization.
