What about the problem vaccine? Is the problem vaccine harmful to children?

These two days' vaccine events have touched the hearts of countless parents. Children are the future of the motherland, and they will suffer from such devastation before they are fully grown up. What to do if you make sure your baby accidentally gets the problem vaccine, parents should not panic too much. The safety indicators of these two batches of problem vaccines are fully in line with the standards.

How to know if there is a problem with children's vaccination?

If you want to know if your baby has been vaccinated in question, here are three ways:

1. Check the vaccination record of DPT on the children's vaccination certificate, compare with the published vaccine manufacturers and batch numbers, and judge whether the unqualified DPT vaccine of the corresponding batch number has been inoculated.

Go home and turn out the vaccination book to confirm whether the child has been vaccinated with the problem vaccine. According to the former State Food and drug administration, the titer index of DPT vaccine with the batch number of 201605014-01 produced by Changchun Changsheng and 201607050-2 produced by Wuhan biological Co., Ltd. did not meet the standard.

2. You can consult the vaccinating unit, and the vaccinating unit will assist in querying the batch number of the DPT vaccine to determine whether the unqualified DPT vaccine of the corresponding batch number has been vaccinated.

3. Call 12320 public health hotline for consultation.

Is it harmful for children to get the problematic vaccine

At this point, parents can still be a little relieved. The safety indicators of these two batches of problematic vaccines are fully in line with the standards. What's wrong is the 'titer index', which means the vaccine is not effective. Effectiveness and safety are two different concepts. The simple understanding is that the children who get the vaccine are OK, but the preventive effect of the vaccine is not good. The biggest risk lies in the possibility of failure, resulting in the inability to prevent the corresponding disease.

Don't worry about choking on anger

If children are not vaccinated because of this incident, the risk may be higher. This is not right. Vaccine can prevent hepatitis B, measles, pertussis, chicken pox and other diseases, which are a great threat to children's health.

At present, only some batches of rabies vaccine and DPT vaccine have problems; other batches of similar vaccines or other vaccines have no problems temporarily. It is suggested that parents should continue to pay attention to the follow-up news.

Some domestic vaccines have passed the pre certification of who products, such as live attenuated B encephalitis vaccine, oral type I and III polio vaccine, influenza vaccine and hepatitis A inactivated vaccine. For example, UNICEF and GAVI have purchased these vaccines for use in other countries.
