Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Vaccines:
Bivalent oral poliovirus vaccine (bOPV) types 1 and 3
Inactivated Poliovirus Vaccine (IPV)
There are two Arms in the study, the infants in these Arms will receive bOPV and IPV both in different/reverse schedule as described below.
How many times:
Arm A - Infants will be administered 4 doses of bOPV, at birth, 6, 10 and 14 weeks age. In addition, these infants will receive 2 doses of IPV at 14 and 18 weeks age respectively
Arm B - Infants will receive 3 doses of IPV at 6, 10 and 14 weeks. In addition, they will receive a bOPV dose at 18 weeks.

Dose and route of administration:

Dose of bOPV will be the standard prescribed dose of 2 drops given orally and IPV also in the regular dose of 0.5 ml administered by intramuscular injection.

Who will administer and where:
The vaccines will be administered by experienced and trained vaccinators under the supervision of trained research physicians at four study sites in Nigeria:
1. Institute of Child Health, University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital (UNTH), Enugu,
2. Uwani Cottage Hospital Enugu,
3. Institute of Child Health, University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital and
4. Children Hospital, Ilorin.
