Question
My baby is 6 months and 2 weeks old. I’ve heard that hand, foot, and mouth disease is particularly severe in children lately. I want to know when should I get the hand, foot, and mouth disease vaccine?
Answer
The Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease vaccine can be administered before the child falls ill to provide preventive measures. It is recommended to get the vaccine during the peak seasons of hand, foot, and mouth disease in spring and autumn to effectively prevent the disease. Additionally, pay attention to keeping warm, try to avoid letting your child catch a cold, and give your child more immune-boosting foods. Try not to take your child to crowded public places.
