Hexavalent Vaccine Could Boost India's Immunisation Programme

A study by the Union Health Ministry suggests introducing the hexavalent vaccine into India's Universal Immunisation Programme could significantly enhance efficiency. This single vaccine combines multiple protections, potentially reducing the total number of injections administered to infants. Such a change would ease the workload on healthcare professionals and streamline the overall delivery of essential immunisations, ultimately improving public health outcomes across the nation.
