6 months dose
Our baby has completed six months on 4rth June. On vaccination chart it shows there is a dose requirement of 2 shots.
OPV1 & Hep-B3.
But many hosipitals are saying that doses are required in 9th month only Or some are saying they do not do 6months vaccination.
We are confused. Pls help. Whether these doses are critical and must Or 9 month vaccination will cover it. we are also very cautious about taking out baby during current pandemic.

Usually with normal schedule your baby might have received already 4 doses of Hep B. So 6 month dose hep 3 is not required.... opv is not an issue...can be given or take later also.
