Patient's question:
My baby is a premature child, and I was very worried about the child's condition from the beginning. Recently, the child has had a series of issues, and I am very concerned, fearing that the child's condition may worsen. Could you please tell me which vaccines newborns need to receive?Doctor's answer:
Newborns need to receive one dose of the hepatitis B vaccine at birth and one dose of BCG vaccine within 24 hours. If the child's weight is less than 2500g, the BCG vaccine should be delayed. The child is affected by neonatal diseases, so the mother must take the child to seek medical treatment immediately to avoid various misunderstandings. Symptomatic treatment should be provided in a timely manner. For parents, it is essential to give the child enough care and attention and to do everything possible to help the child receive timely medical treatment for the disease.
