PCV Vaccine
I got my baby vaccinated at pvt clinic with pcv1 vaccine at 6 weeks. Now in my hometown there is no private clinic and so i got my child vaccinated at 10 weeks in govt. hospital but there was no pcv vaccine. Now my childs 14 weeks vaccine is due in coming weeks. What should i do? Will the missed pcv2 vaccine be taken at 14 weeks ?

Yes you must take the vaccine at 14 weeks. Government and private vaccine schedules are different. Then you should decide whether to follow government or private. Some vaccines are not given in government like influenza, typhoid etc. follow the government schedule now and later you can take the vaccines which were missed in private.
