summary

A few days ago, I met a neighbor on the road. She asked me if our children had been informed to get influenza vaccine. She also asked if our children had been vaccinated and whether they needed to be vaccinated. So I told her what I really thought. Today, let me share with you whether influenza vaccine is necessary.

Is influenza vaccine necessary

First: influenza vaccine belongs to the national class II vaccine, which is voluntary and self funded. For children 14 months old, I don't think it's necessary to vaccinate them. First of all, such a big child, if its own resistance, easy to infect, so it does not mean that the flu will not catch a cold, through clinical observation, children's vaccination effect is not very good.

Second, it is necessary to get a flu vaccine. Because your child is only 5 years old, the physical resistance is very poor. Influenza vaccine must be given every year. It's hard to say how much it costs to get an injection every year, because different regions, different levels of hospitals, and different charges.

Third: influenza vaccine is used to prevent influenza. It is suitable for any healthy person who may be infected with influenza virus. It is vaccinated once a year before the epidemic season, and the immunity can last for one year. Influenza vaccine is one of the main measures to prevent and control influenza. It can reduce the chance of influenza infection or reduce the symptoms of influenza.
