Well I'm a 3rd semester nursing student and just took a pharmacology exam online and this was similar to one of my questions. Active immunizations are usually contraindicated in those with an active infection (AIDS, those receiving chemotherapy) and those that are immunosuppressed. Apparently children under the age of one is not one of the contraindications.
