A. polio vaccine is included in regular vaccine schedule. it has to be completed as per schedule.x pulse polio vaccination is extra dosage which needs to be taken.(when andx where it will occur is usually informed by local dr and health authorities) by chance missed then no need to take it if you have completed regular schedule polio vaccine.

A. Yes it is important and if you still have any queries associated with this any kind of a doubt about it then you can always take an advice with your paediatrician in fact all the paediatricians on the platform also also suggested to get it done
