My baby was given an expired Poliovac (IPV2) vaccine at 14th week. The expiry date was May 2023, and the vaccine was given on 22nd July 2023. What are the consequences of the expired vaccine being administered? Should I give her another shot of IPV2 again or simply follow the vaccine schedule?

A. the action will not have any side effects but you will have to again give a vaccine which is valid. so you can just not consider the expired vaccine and you can go for the same vaccine again

Q. My son 1.5 years age got his hepatitis A2 vaccine today. i.e. 30/04/2023. But, we noticed given vaccine was expired 25 days ago ( exp. date written on sticker 06/04/2023) we asked the pediatrician he admitted his carelessness and said there won't be any side affects and efficacy of vaccine will be little less as compared with non expired one. But, I'm very worried now. First time I haven't checked the expiry date and this blunder has happened. Will there be any reactions or side effects of this to my child?
