Hi, My baby is 3 years okd and we missed both polio vaccines that happened this year? Is there any problem or can we wait till next year? Or can we go to private hospital to vaccinate by baby with OPV? Is there any difference between OPV given in government camps and private hospitals?

You please visit nearby pediatrician and take polio vaccine or can visit nearby government hospital they will give it. Vaccine is same everywhere. Please don't miss next time.
