If my child missed getting a vaccine, do they need to start the series over again?

Question: 

If my child missed getting a vaccine, do they need to start the series over again?

Answer: 

No. If your child missed a dose of vaccine, they do not need to start the whole series over again. Your child can pick up where they left off, regardless of the time that has passed between doses. 

You can contact your local health unit or community health centre to make an appointment for your child to get caught up.
