    rotavirus is optional and its not covered (ateast when we went for my DD) We took our DD to SEHA in Al Mushrif(they have many clinics- not sure where they are located). you have to get an appointment.Call their call centre 02-6104000 before you take ur baby. the no. might get moderated

    They will open file in your child's name i think at the time of appt itself. Also you may need to carry passport of child and parent(dont remember)pls check wit them at the time of appt. We normally take appt for morning so there is hardly any rush. they hv a paed. they check wt, ht etc.

    saps105 is rite, u can take the baby to government clinic, as she said rota is not covered and u should go to private clinics to get it, i think it was 300aed when i got it done.

    hi
    there is one govt clinic named al zafran behind abudhabi co op in murroor where vaccination are free if you have an insurance card
    also almost painless for baby as compared to in india
    they also takes vaccination on taking account of birth date
    dont waste time and contact quickly as they have a tight schedule
