I'm really worried about my 1-year-9-month-old who's been showing signs of pneumonia. The doctor already gave her a dose of nebulization and some antibiotics, but she's still in pain and having trouble breathing. Is it okay if I give her a second dose of nebulization after four hours?

I'm a bit confused and worried about my baby's vaccination schedule. My little one is 10 months old and we got the MMR vaccine done last month. Now, with the government announcing another round of MMR vaccinations, should I take her for this one too? Is it necessary or are we covered with the one we've already done?

no need as she is already vaccinated
