If I will give PCV 10 instead of PCV 13, Is it ok. I am worried on finance part also, but don't want to put my child on risk of pneumonia. Even want to understand this vaccine will fully protect my kid against pneumonia.

Use of PCV13 would maximize reductions in cases, death, and be cost-saving compared with PCV10. Vaccination is an effective intervention to prevent the significant morbidity and mortality associated with pneumococcal disease.
