What Risks Are Associated with Meningococcal Vaccine Inoculation?

Question

Now one year and one month old, my nine-month-old baby has received the meningococcal vaccine a+c. According to the data, it is not recommended for babies under two years of age to receive the a+c vaccine. What risks are associated with this?

Answer

Meningococcal meningitis is an infectious disease caused by meningococcus, characterized by symptoms such as high fever, headache, vomiting, and neck stiffness. Additionally, it may lead to complications such as sepsis, skin purpura, brain damage, and even hearing loss, deafness, and intellectual disability. The meningococcal vaccine is an effective measure for preventing this highly prevalent and high-risk infectious disease, which is crucial for protecting children’s health.
