Q.

My baby was due for 10 weeks vaccination.Yesterday we got him vaccinated in government school but they had given him only one injection which was DPT and two oral drop (polio and rotavirus). Now he is due for heptitis and hib b can we get combination vaccine for this both in government hospital and also they mentioned IPV2 and PCV vaccine had been injected but they did give him only one injection. Are they mandatory because he was given pentavac injection at 6 weeks and also IPV and PCV.

A. Government of India does not give individual vaccination but the vaccination with them is pentavalent which covers both hepatitis b and h influenzae b along with the diptheria pertussis and tetanus so kindly clarify with the people
