Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving and crying non-stop recently. Even the hospital check-ups haven't helped. I'm wondering if the vaccine for preventing infant pneumonia is effective.Doctor's answer:
This vaccine primarily prevents diseases caused by a bacterium called Streptococcus pneumoniae, which includes pneumonia, otitis media, meningitis, and so on. I haven't heard of any side effects, as it's mandatory in foreign countries. Anyway, the safety is definitely guaranteed, but in my opinion, every baby has a different constitution, and there may be some reactions after vaccination to some extent. If there's absolutely no reaction after getting vaccinated, that would be the problem.
