Brief Answer:
No need to worry, you can safely wait till the lockdown is over

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thanks for asking on this platform

I have gone through the query and do understand your concern.
At one year of age hepatitis A vaccine is to be given.
Hepatitis a is food or water born infection and is uncommon in this age. It is to be given for life long immunity.
You need not to worry as you can safely wait for one or two months for vaccination.

I hope this helps.
Please let me know if you have any more doubts.
Regards
