    At what age is the DTaP vaccine typically administered to children?
    Question

    At what age is the DTaP vaccine typically administered to children?

    A.

    6 weeks, 10 weeks, 14 weeks

    B.

    2 years, 3 years, 4 years

    C.

    2 months, 4 months, 6 months

    D.

    12 months, 18 months, 24 months

    Correct option is C


    Ans: (c) 2 months, 4 months, 6 months Sol. The DTaP vaccine (Diphtheria, Tetanus, and Pertussis) is typically administered to children at the ages of 2 months, 4 months, and 6 months as part of their routine immunization schedule. Additional doses are given later, but these are the initial doses recommended by health authorities like the CDC.
    Explanation of each option:
    · (a) 6 weeks, 10 weeks, 14 weeks: This is not the correct schedule for the DTaP vaccine. The DTaP vaccine is typically given at 2 months, 4 months, and 6 months, not at 6, 10, and 14 weeks.
    · (b) 2 years, 3 years, 4 years: This is incorrect. These ages are typically for other vaccines, such as the Polio vaccine, but not for the initial DTaP doses.
    · (c) 2 months, 4 months, 6 months: Correct answer. The DTaP vaccine is administered at 2 months, 4 months, and 6 months to provide protection against diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis during early childhood.
    · (d) 12 months, 18 months, 24 months: This is incorrect. These ages are typically for other vaccines, but the DTaP schedule starts at 2 months, not 12 months.
