A. pulse polio immunization is extra dosage irrespective of the vaccination schedule as well as the vaccination that is been given to the child. it is advisable that you get the child vaccinated for polio if the child is noxt having any type of fever at present. simple cough and cold is not a contraindication for polio drops. it is usually available at any government centre that is primary and centre or urban health centre

A. It is not necessary but if you take it then it is going to be like double protection that’s about it if you don’t want to take it I will not say that take it is not mandatory because but I personally believe what is wrong in having double protection
