Just to check with u the BCG for 12-15yrs old girls are given at the age of 12 or 15 here in malaysia??
@Abie Shidah Ad
BCG used to be given to children at 12 years old in Malaysia, but since 2001, this has discontinued. BCG given at birth still continue, as you can see from the table above.
The one for girls at 12 (Standard 6) is Rubella.
