Which vaccine is given at birth?
Answer: B
The vaccine given at birth is BCG.
Under India's immunisation schedule, BCG is given at birth (or as early as possible until one year), along with the zero dose of oral polio vaccine and the birth dose of hepatitis B vaccine.
DPT, now given as the pentavalent vaccine, starts at 6 weeks. Measles-rubella vaccine is given at 9 months. Hepatitis A vaccine is not part of the birth doses; the birth-dose hepatitis vaccine is hepatitis B.
