Final answer:

The vaccination prophylaxis for a SC patient at 2 years old and 2 months to 6 years includes specific doses of vaccines.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vaccination prophylaxis for a patient with sickle cell disease (SC) at 2 years old includes receiving three doses:

  1. DTaP vaccine: 2nd dose
  2. IPV vaccine: 2nd dose
  3. Hib vaccine: the final dose

For a patient aged 2 months to 6 years, they should receive one dose of the PCV13 vaccine.

It's important for individuals with SC to follow the recommended immunization schedule to protect themselves from vaccine-preventable diseases.
