The BCG vaccine is designed to protect against tuberculosis, a bacterial infection that can affect the lungs and other parts of the body including the kidneys, spine and brain.
While some people can fight off tuberculosis naturally, others experience serious health complications or even die after catching this illness. The vaccine has been shown to significantly reduce the risks of developing serious health conditions.
There is no longer a single diphtheria vaccine. Protection against diphtheria is now offered via a choice of combination vaccines that protect against multiple illnesses in one injection.
At BabyJabs, the most commonly given vaccine for diphtheria is a 3-in-1 vaccine called Daptacel, which offers protection against diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough (also known as pertussis).
The hepatitis B vaccine protects babies born to mothers with hepatitis B, children living with someone who has hepatitis B, or those travelling to places where hepatitis B is common. Hepatitis B is a liver infection caused by a virus spread through blood and body fluids. Most adults with hepatitis B recover fully in a few months, but babies and some older children can develop a lifelong infection, which increases the risk of serious liver problems like cirrhosis or liver cancer. Vaccination helps prevent this infection and its complications.
Meningococcal disease is caused by certain types of bacteria that can lead to serious illnesses like meningitis and blood poisoning. While anyone can get meningococcal disease, it’s more common in babies, children, and teenagers.
About 10-15% of people with meningococcal disease die from it. Among those who survive, 10-20% may have long-lasting effects like brain damage, scarring, hearing loss, or even losing a limb.
There are many types of meningococcus, but most cases are caused by six main groups: A, B, C, W-135, X, and Y. In the UK, group B (MenB) is responsible for about 87% of all cases.
The pneumococcal vaccine helps prevent infections caused by the bacterium Streptococcus pneumoniae, which can result in serious illnesses like pneumonia, blood poisoning (sepsis), and meningitis. In severe cases, these infections can cause permanent brain damage or be fatal. The vaccine protects against these harmful outcomes by building immunity against the bacteria.
Rotavirus is a highly contagious virus that causes diarrhoea, vomiting, fever, abdominal pain, and dehydration in infants, young children, and adults. It spreads through coughing, sneezing, and hand-to-mouth contact, especially when hands aren’t washed after using the toilet. Children often pick it up from toys, dirty nappies, or unwashed hands. In countries with high childhood mortality, rotavirus causes more diarrhoea-related deaths in children under five than any other single agent. Even in countries with lower mortality rates, rotavirus can lead to dangerous dehydration, requiring hospitalization with IV fluids. The rotavirus vaccine, given orally, helps protect infants and young children from severe illness caused by rotavirus.
Tetanus, also known as “lockjaw,” is a deadly illness caused by bacteria found in soil and animal manure. It enters the body through wounds, burns, or insect bites. Up to one in five people who get tetanus die, even with the best treatment. Combination vaccines that protect against tetanus along with diseases like diphtheria or whooping cough are available, offering more options for vaccination tailored to your child’s needs.
Chickenpox is a common childhood infection that causes a fever, skin rash and a breakout of fluid-filled blisters on the skin. A child usually only needs to catch it once to develop lifelong immunity.
In most cases, chickenpox is a mild illness and complications are rare but it can be more severe in adults, young infants or children with a weakened immune system. In the UK, approximately 20 people a year die as a result of chickenpox.
The chickenpox vaccine is designed to protect anyone vulnerable to the more severe complications associated with the illness.
Most people who have the vaccine will either not go on to catch chickenpox or will have a much milder version of the illness when they do come into contact with it.
Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) is a bacterial infection that can cause serious illnesses like meningitis, sepsis, and pneumonia, especially in children under five years old. Thanks to routine vaccinations for babies introduced in 1992, Hib infections have become rare in the UK. Nowadays, Hib mostly affects adults with certain medical conditions. It’s important for all children to get vaccinated against Hib to keep infection rates low.
There are different vaccination options available to protect against Hib: a single Hib vaccine, a combination vaccine for Hib and meningitis C, or Hib protection included in the 5-in-1 vaccine that also covers diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, and polio.
The measles vaccine protects against a highly contagious viral illness called measles. Symptoms usually appear about 10 days after infection and can include cold-like symptoms, red eyes, small white spots inside the cheeks, and a high fever. A red-brown rash typically follows a few days later, starting on the head and spreading to the body. While most people recover within a week to 10 days, measles can lead to serious complications like pneumonia or brain inflammation (encephalitis), and it can be fatal. The measles vaccine provides long-lasting protection against this disease. We offer either a single measles vaccination, a combined measles-rubella vaccination, or the MMR vaccine that also protects against mumps. During your consultation, we’ll help you choose the best option for your child’s protection.
Meningococcal disease is caused by different types of bacteria and can lead to serious illnesses like meningitis and blood poisoning. It can affect anyone, but it’s most common in babies, children, and teenagers.
Around 10-15% of people with meningococcal disease die from it. Those who survive may have long-lasting problems like brain injury, scarring, hearing loss, or even losing a limb, affecting 10-20% of survivors.
There are at least 13 types of meningococcus, but most cases are caused by six main groups: A, B, C, W-135, X, and Y. In the UK, group B (MenB) causes about 87% of cases.
There are two different vaccines that protect against meningitis C. We can discuss which vaccine is best for your child during your consultation.
The polio vaccine protects against polio, a serious viral infection that can cause paralysis or death. Many people with polio have no symptoms, but for others, it can be life-changing. The vaccine has eliminated natural cases of polio in the UK since the 1980s. It’s important for everyone to get vaccinated to keep polio rates low, especially in areas where the infection still exists.
Rubella, also known as German measles, is a viral infection spread like a cold or flu, through droplets from the nose or throat of an infected person. Vaccination has made rubella rare in the UK, but it remains common in other parts of the world, especially among children.
Whooping cough, also called pertussis, is a highly contagious bacterial infection known for its persistent cough with a distinctive “whoop” sound. It’s most serious in infants under 12 months. Protection against whooping cough is offered through combination vaccines like the 3-in-1 DTaP, which also protects against diphtheria and tetanus. There are other combination vaccines available, like 4-in-1 and 5-in-1, that include whooping cough protection. Booster shots are sometimes used to reinforce immunity.
