Patient's question:
My baby has undergone surgery and received a blood transfusion. When discharged, the doctor informed me that I cannot get vaccinated within 6 months. Now that it's been over 6 months, I went to get the BCG vaccine and was told that a test needs to be done first. How many tests are required?Doctor's answer:
I am a doctor who has resigned from the Fast Doctor service, and I am very happy to help you solve your doubts. The BCG vaccine is usually administered after birth. If there are certain situations where vaccination is delayed, it must be completed within three months. Those who have not received the BCG vaccine within three months need to undergo a tuberculin test; only those with a negative result can receive the BCG vaccine. Wishing you a speedy recovery, a healthy body, and a wonderful life.
