IPV or OPV
Does pulse polio and OPV is different?
My daughter is 3.5months old and our doc didn't tell us that he had not given OPV to my daughter, this time when my husband asked then only he said we don't have OPV.
Though IPV and pulse polio are given.
Please advise what to do?

If you're giving regular,scheduled vaccines,opv OR IPV,even if you miss pulse polio doses,doesn't matter,your child is fully protected.
But,it's for the good of the country as a whole,so try not to miss it.
