Post Pandemic: Make These Key Changes for Your Child's Immunity
How does someone determine that the pandemic is over? The coronavirus was declared a pandemic because this was an entirely new virus and no one had any sort of immunity towards it which made easy work for the disease to run rampant throughout the world. There would come a time when most of the world would have developed immunity for the disease, and the virus would not be able to affect the whole world this much easier. That would be declared as the end of the pandemic. This immunity may be naturally acquired immunity or be obtained from immunisation.
What Should Be Your Post Pandemic Plan For Your Child’s Immunity?
This is the most prominent question: what is the plan after the pandemic? Most people would come up with a very common answer which is travel.

To travel, you must first increase the immunity of your child. Follow the given steps to improve your child's immunity post-pandemic:
