Question
My child has been crying and restless recently. I took them to the hospital for a check-up and no issues were found. I want to know if the vaccine for preventing pediatric pneumonia is helpful?
Answer
This vaccine mainly prevents diseases caused by pneumococcal bacteria, including pneumonia, otitis media, and meningitis. Although there may be some reactions after vaccination, safety is guaranteed, and in most countries, it is mandatory to receive the vaccine. Each child’s constitution is different, and reactions after vaccination may vary, which is normal.
