Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Yes, oral polio vaccine and HIB can be given to 80 days old.
Hib is not painful.
Only vaccine that causes pain is DPT containing whole cell pertussis vaccine.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
