Does the baby need the fifth dose of polio vaccine after receiving three doses?

Patient's question:

Our baby previously received three doses of the inactivated polio vaccine, which was publicly funded. For the fifth dose, do we still need to receive the same vaccine? Would there be any adverse reactions if we take the sugar?

Doctor's answer:

The fourth time can focus on getting the polio vaccine, which can prevent the recurrence of polio and prevent serious harm to the body. It is important to pay attention to preventing colds and keeping warm. Taking sugar pills is also acceptable and will not cause any adverse reactions. It is best to wait and see for now, and follow the normal vaccination procedure to administer the vaccine. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
