My baby is 3 months old. We vaccinated her with Rotavirus, Pneumosil and Pentavac in private. But IPV is missed in it The doctor gave a polio drop instead of this IPV in both vaccinations. Is this fine? Can we vaccinate her 3rd time in government or aangan bari with IPV injection?? Is IPV injection very important???
