Both rotavirus and PCV which is pneumococcal vaccine are very important vaccines. Rotavirus doses should be completed by 6 months. Since your baby is 11 month old it can not be given now. Pneumococcal can be given. It protects against pneumonia, brain fever, ear infection, blood infections. So I definitely would advice you should vaccinate your baby. Three doses should be given. 1 and 2 in a gap of 1 month and booster after 1 year. Hope this info helps.
