Is baby vaccination mandatory?

Maiyko AI ADVISOR

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Vaccines are free and recommended applications under Turkey's Ministry of Health's Extended Immunization Program. While not technically called "mandatory," vaccination cards may be required for school enrollment and daycare. From a medical standpoint, vaccines protect babies against serious and preventable diseases such as pneumonia, meningitis, and whooping cough; the AAP (American Academy of Pediatrics) and WHO recommend vaccination without delay. The decision is entirely up to the family, but not following the vaccination schedule carries significant risks for the baby. For detailed information, you can consult your family doctor or pediatrician.
