10th week vaccines given in the 7th week
During the 6th week immunisation for my baby boy, the government clinic did not have PCV1 vaccine in stock. They gave the baby OPV1, Penta1, Rota1 and IPV1 at 6 weeks. So they called us after 10 days for the missed dose of PCV1. But when my spouse took the baby for the missed dose after 10 days at the end of 7th week, the government clinic gave the baby all the doses which are meant for the 10th week along with the missed dose. Namely OPV2, Penta2, Rota2 and PCV1. This means that the baby was given the vaccines with a gap of only 12 days. Whereas these vaccines were supposed to be given after a gap of 30 days. My question is, will these vaccines be effective or ineffective? And if the vaccines are ineffective because of less gap, can we fix it by giving OPV2, Penta2 and Rota2 again after a gap of 1 month?

It's a overlook that happened and certainly not an intentional one. As you know because of lots of patients and limited staff they get overburdened. Nothing serious is going to happen only the spacing is advised for the immune response.   Try taking the third dose at 3 and half months.
