Are vaccines free in Jordan?
Yes — all national-program vaccines are given free at government health centers for every child residing in Jordan, Jordanian and non-Jordanian. Some optional vaccines (chickenpox, meningitis, seasonal flu) may be available privately for a fee — ask a pediatrician.
What if we miss a dose?
No need to restart the series. The national program allows catch-up dosing — visit your health center soon to reschedule remaining doses. What matters is not leaving your child under-immunized.
