Doctor's answer:
First, people allergic to egg whites cannot receive the influenza vaccine, as well as those under the age of 3 and individuals whom doctors believe are not suitable for vaccination. Additionally, check if the child has an allergic constitution, meaning they are allergic to multiple different substances. If they are not, and only allergic to seafood, they can still receive the influenza vaccine! Don't worry! When it's time to get vaccinated, have the child tell the nurse a few words, and there won't be any major issues!
