swimming, nappies and OPV
Last reviewed 01/2018
Recently immunised children may be taken swimming in public baths after OPV - there is no risk of polio to unimmunised children from OPV if they are taken swimming.
Soiled nappies of infants recently receiving OPV should be disposed of without contaminating public facilities that others might use.
