Rota Virus Vaccination

2. IPV - is not available easily. If this gets delayed is there any issue to my daughter and how to get this vaccine and what quantity is required to be injected to the baby
3. Pneumococcal - as per the vaccine table this was supposed to be given by 6 weeks and it is missed. How is it going to effect and can we get this vaccine done now when she is 10 weeks old
Please suggest... Your guidance is required

10 and 13 type vaccines are for pneumococcal not for rotavirus.. Any one can be taken. It can be given at this time also..... Rotavirus have two variety. Any one of them can be administered, no issues.....IPC not available presently, when available it can be administered. No problem in that also.
