A. polio vaccine is included in regular vaccine schedule. it has to be completed as per schedule. pulse polio vaccination is extra dosage whichs needs to be taken.(when and 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 completedx regular schedule polio vaccine.
