Question
The child needs to receive the Influenza A vaccine recently, but they have allergic purpura. Can they receive the vaccine? If not, what type of vaccine should they receive?
Answer
For immune diseases such as allergic purpura and nephrotic syndrome, vaccines are not recommended when the disease is unstable. There are many cases where vaccination has triggered or exacerbated the condition. Therefore, it is advisable to avoid vaccination when the disease has not yet stabilized or when control time is short. Additionally, the effectiveness of the Influenza A vaccine is not yet clear, so it is recommended to reduce taking children to public places and crowded areas to minimize the risk of infection.
