As per recommendations ( WHO CDC & India) there is no contraindication to taking polio drops after being covid + .
It is therefore very important to continue with the oral polio drop as per existing schedule and not deviate from that. Polio is preventable. NO DOSE OF OPV Should be skipped.
For further information and clarity.
You can visit the WHO/CDC , MOHFW India pages , or the Nearest Vaccination center and speak to the Vaccination Officer /Paediatrician or Public Health Specialist.

If she was Covid positive then it is better to wait for some more time. Let the gap between Covid infection and polio drops be 6 months.
