A. you have to just follow regular vaccination schedule and after that when pulse polio immunization is being carried out by the government then at that time extra dosage needs to be given

A. good morning you should follow the vaccination chart provided by the doctor and polio should be given each time it is available in a government camp set up near your house other than that you can just get the vaccination done as per the chart
