A male infant is brought to his pediatrician’s office for a well-child visit. He has a temperature of 37.2°C (99°F) and clear nasal drainage. Physical examination is otherwise unremarkable. The infant is able to lift his head when prone, track past the midline, and coo. His immunization record indicates that he received his first hepatitis B vaccination at birth. Assuming this child is developing normally, which vaccines should this infant receive today?
(A) Hepatitis B and diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis only
(B) Hepatitis B, diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis, and inactivated poliomyelitis
(C) Hepatitis B, diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis, Haemophilus influenzae type b, inactivated poliomyelitis, and pneumococcal conjugate
(D) Hepatitis B only
(E) None; schedule a return visit when the child’s nasal congestion subsides, and administer the immunizations then
