Clinical
Vaccinations
The national childhood schedule — nine vaccines, twenty-two doses on the Egyptian EPI calendar — generated from the birth date. Each dose is due, given (with lot, site and manufacturer) or skipped with a reason; overdue doses are on a list; reminders reach the parent; the card prints.
