Rota virus vaccine
Hi Doctor,
At 6 week doctor gave rotavac vaccine but recently that doctor got Covid infection and temporary closed the hospital. We went to different hospital for 10 week vaccination and they gave rotasiil vaccine. But now I heard that we should give same injection every time. Very much worried about effectiveness of vaccine. Now what I can do?

Ideally same brand to be given for full series but vaccination should not be deferred if the given previous brand is unavailable.. So you can complete the vaccination series with the available brands, there is no harm
