Any mother wants her baby to be healthy. But often infants with immunocompromised children are affected by infectious diseases. It’s better not to allow this. But if the disease defeated the baby, it would be useful to know what measures should be taken to eliminate the infection as soon as possible.

Rubella appears as pink spots throughout the body. The child's lymph nodes become inflamed. As a rule, rubella soon passes and does not cause further complications. It is believed that those who have been ill with it will no longer encounter this disease in life, since they have acquired immunity to it.
There are reliable vaccinations against polio.

But it is worth considering, because most often infectious diseases of animals proceed unnoticed. And it can harm the health of the child. Therefore, you need to understand that it is better to get pets at the age of the baby, in which his body has formed immunity sufficient to not get infected from our smaller brothers.
