Patient's question:
My daughter is four and a half years old, and she has always been in good health.She rarely gets sick throughout the four seasons, and her immunity is also very strong.
I've noticed that there are more vaccinations required now.
Could you please tell me which important vaccinations are necessary?
When can she stop getting vaccinated?
I feel that children get too many vaccinations, and sometimes it might not be good for them. Is that right?
First question supplement: Yesterday, I got my child the hepatitis B booster shot.
The doctor told me that she won't need any more shots in the future.
She can just get a booster shot when she turns seven.
Doctor's answer:
According to national regulations, the mandatory vaccination (compulsory immunization) is required to better control the sources of infection, cut off transmission pathways, protect susceptible populations, and prevent all infectious diseases. Moreover, children will need to provide their vaccination certificates to enroll in kindergartens, schools, or even travel abroad.Recommendations:
- Consult with the local health department for guidance.
- Vaccinate children promptly.
- Vaccinations should not be administered during colds or fever. Wait for about a week after stopping medication before vaccination.
- Ensure proper nutrition and care to strengthen the child's immune system.
