Q. My baby vaccination is completed upto 6th week by government hospital. Now its time for 10th week vaccination. As per government hospital vaccination schedule, there are only two doses of PCV and IPV i.e at 6th and 14th week but as per private hospital schedule, there are total three doses i.e at 6th, 10th and 14th week. Should i continue in government hospital or opt for private hospital? Is it possible that i vaccinate my child at 10th week by government hospital for all vaccines and then go to private hospital for only PCV and IPV and then at 14th week vaccine by government hospital for all vaccines? #Vaccination

Q. Hi Doctor, For my kid 6th week vaccination completed at government healthcare center. Same five vaccines they are giving in 14th week also. But in 10th week they are giving only three vaccines i.e. Penta, OPV and ROTA, not giving PCV and IPV. Tomorrow is my kid 10th week vaccination day. So once we take three vaccines i.e Penta, OPV, ROTA for him in government center, same day can we go and take PCV vaccine at private hospital?

Q. Hi Doctor, For my kid 6th week vaccination completed at Government center. There they given Penta-1 injection for DPT+Hep-B+Hib, for PCV-'pneumosil vaccine ip 10 varient' and seperate injection for IPV and. Also at government centers they are not giving PCV and IPV at 10th week. But in private hospital they are giving prevenar13 for PCV and Hexavalent vaccine which includes six vaccines(DPT+Hep-B+Hib+IPV). As these vaccines are more effective and as we can affordable, from 10th week onwards we want to take vaccination for my kid from private hospital. As 6th week vaccination done with pneumosil, penta-1 and IPV injection at government center, do we need to continue with government vaccines for 10th and 14 weeks also ? or Can we get vaccination at private hospital with prevenar13 and hexaxim for 10th and 14th weeks ? Please suggest us....
