Hi everyone Im moving to Kingston Jamaica from the US very soon and I have a 2 year old and a 5 year old. My 2 year old isn't done receiving her shots because they are not due yet so my question is can she still get the same shots in Jamaica or what are the required vaccinations for my youngest to start day care or school.

This is my first time posting since I normally search through the forum to answer my questions but I have not seen the answer to this question any advice is much appreciated.

Thanks, kindly.
