OFFICIAL EXPLANATION
The Ministry of Health recommends that children between the ages of 4 and 6 years receives the final doses of the DTaP, IPV, MMR, and varicella vaccines.
A. receives the final doses of the DTaP, IPV, MMR, and varicella vaccines
This answer choice is grammatically incorrect. Recommend is one of the nine verbs to which the Subjunctive rule applies (if it is followed by that). This means that the next verb after recommends that should be in base form. However, receives is not in base form.
What helps us identify this question as a Subjunctive question as well as identify the mistake is the following Stop Sign: propose/recommend/require/request/insist/suggest/mandate/ask/demand that
Whenever you come across this Stop Sign, make sure that the following verb is in its base form.
B. will receive the final doses of the DTaP, IPV, MMR, and varicella vaccines
This answer choice repeats the original mistake. Recommend is one of the nine verbs to which the Subjunctive rule applies (if it is followed by that). This means that the next verb after recommends that should be in base form. However, will receive is not in base form.
What helps us identify this question as a Subjunctive question as well as identify the mistake is the following Stop Sign: propose/recommend/require/request/insist/suggest/mandate/ask/demand that
Whenever you come across this Stop Sign, make sure that the following verb is in its base form.
C. receive final doses of the DTaP, IPV, MMR, and varicella vaccines
Recommend is one of the nine verbs to which the Subjunctive rule applies (if it is followed by that). This means that the next verb after recommends that should be in base form. This answer choice indeed correctly uses the base form receive.
D. receive the DTaP, IPV, MMR, as well as the varicella vaccines, in their final doses
While this answer choice corrects the original mistake and is grammatically correct, it is stylistically flawed. Replacing the single word and with the three-word phrase as well as creates redundancy.
What helps us identify this mistake is the following Stop Sign: as well as
Whenever you come across this Stop Sign, prefer answer choices that use the more concise and to those that use as well as.
E. receive vaccines and final doses of DTaP, IPV, MMR, and varicella
While this answer choice corrects the original mistake and is grammatically correct, it changes the meaning of the original sentence. It is recommended that the children receive final doses of vaccines for the diseases and not the diseases themselves.

I think it should be C.
