My sister has given birth to a baby on 25 oct 18. His weight at time of birth was 2.8 Kgs. At time of birth he was given BCG. On 7 Dec 18 i.e. 1 1/3 (after 1.15 month) he has been administered BCG by mistake again. Does it involve any risk ?Do I need to shift / change his immunization schedule? please advice. I am too much worried.

There is no harm in giving bcg twice and no need to change the immunisation schedule and it can go as normally
