Polio vaccination
My baby is 1 year and 7 months old. Apparently we missed giving him polio drops in the nation wide drive held in early March. From where can we get his polio vaccination done? What should be the interval for the same?

Its ok if he missed one pulse polio dose but make sure he gets all the polio doses in his immunisation schedule on time and also dont miss pulse polio doses in future.
