Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. All the vaccination should be given according to the vaccination schedule whether the government or IAP schedule and you can discuss with your pediatrician regarding the details of the vaccination.
Pulse polio immunization programme is provided by the government to all children below 5 years of age. if your child has received polio vaccine before as per the scherdule then also you should give this vaccine onr the the pulse polio day as this is an additional vaccine.
For polio vaccine dates and related query you need to contact your local authorities .

Sonam PrasadMom of 2 children3 years agoA. hi dear The PCV13 vaccine protects against 13 strains of pneumococcal disease. At 2 months, your child will receive their first shot in the series. Boosters are given at 4 months, 6 months, and sometime between 12 and 15 months. This vaccine is safe, and most babies don't experience side effects.
