Hi
According to my vaccine record I had the second one week after the first, and the booster won't be required for 2-3 years? The second can be one week after the first, but if you leave it more than 6 weeks you need to start again. Similarly if the booster is left too long the course of two needs to be repeated. It also needs refrigeration if you are taking it with you. :) |
