What are the effects of taking Enerbo vaccine

Enfamil vaccine is a vaccine to prevent pneumonia, meningitis and otitis media in babies. It is generally not a free vaccine, that is, it is included in the range of vaccines that must be administered by the country. Although it is not a free vaccine, mothers should also be aware of the importance of Enfamil vaccine. After all, newborn babies are incompletely developed and have weak resistance. In addition, high-frequency long-term diseases such as pneumonia and meningitis require more attention. It is recommended to go to the hospital to consult a doctor as soon as possible after the baby is born to see if your baby is suitable for vaccination.

Vaccine symptoms

"Enfamil" HIB is a vaccine that is administered outside the national plan and is voluntary and at one's own expense.

It is used to prevent pneumonia, meningitis, bacteremia and other diseases caused by HIB (Haemophilus influenzae), which has a higher incidence in developed countries and mainly occurs in children under 5 years old, especially under 1 year old.

Although the disease is less common in Asia, it is associated with the following causes:

1) Asian laboratories have poor testing technology.

2) Antibiotics are severely abused in Asia.

Currently, Asian countries, including China, have paid attention to the disease, and its incidence rate is estimated to be similar to that in Europe and the United States.

According to the immunization schedule: if the vaccination starts between 6 months and 1 year old, two injections should be given within 1 year old, with an interval of 2 months, and another booster injection when the baby is 1 to 1.5 years old.

After the injection, there may be adverse reactions such as fever, upper respiratory tract infection, cold symptoms, etc. If you have any reaction, you should follow the advice of the local Center for Disease Control and Prevention physician or the pediatrician at a regular hospital.

Prevention of symptoms

Enfamil is used to prevent pneumonia and meningitis in children

Any young parent would feel unfamiliar when hearing about Haemophilus influenzae type B, but would only feel panic rather than unfamiliar when hearing about pneumonia or meningitis in children, because once a child gets these diseases, the mildest case would be suffering from the pain, and the severest case could lead to death. Every parent of the sick child would have to delay work and pay hefty medical expenses.

Data shows that once a child is infected with this disease and needs to be hospitalized, the medical expenses required are as high as several thousand yuan. Investigation and research data from doctors at Beijing Children's Hospital showed that among cases of bacterial meningitis diagnosed by etiology, 28.9%-31.7% of the children were infected with Haemophilus influenzae type b. A survey in seven provinces and cities in my country showed that 85.2% of children aged 0-4 years old have no resistance to Haemophilus influenzae type B. Therefore, protecting children's health becomes the responsibility of our epidemic prevention workers.

The Ministry of Health approved the introduction of the Haemophilus influenzae type B vaccine, known as Enfamil, which has been widely used in more than 100 countries around the world and has been included in the national immunization programs of 20 countries including the United States. Some children in Beijing have also received the vaccine. The vaccine is suitable for children aged 2 months to 5 years, with a protection rate of over 95% and an effective protection period of 5 years. Generally speaking, a child’s own immunity will reach a protective level after 5 years. The specific vaccination method is as follows: children under 6 months old should be vaccinated for 3 consecutive injections starting from the third month, with an interval of 30 days; if not vaccinated before 6 months old, children aged 6-12 months need 2 injections, with an interval of 30 days; if not vaccinated before 1 year old, children aged 1-5 years only need 1 injection. The retail price of Enfamil is 147 yuan per vial. The economic benefit ratio of prevention and treatment is above 1:25. Parents can choose different injection times according to the age of your child. As long as you take your child to the immunization clinic of the health department of the nearest hospital where you live, the doctors there will vaccinate your child to ensure your child's healthy growth.
