WASHINGTON -- Parents, expect fewer screams in the pediatrician's office: A
new vaccine that promises to cut out six of the 20 injections that babies
get before age 2 won federal approval Monday.

The vaccine, called Pediarix, combines into one injection today's shots that
protect against five different diseases -- diphtheria, tetanus, whooping
cough, hepatitis B and polio.
