Question
A four-year-old girl went to the hospital to get the necessary vaccines for school, and the hospital gave her a bottle of Lantibacillin bacterial lysate for 298 yuan, saying it is for the prevention and treatment of upper respiratory infections, and to drink it at home. Is this a vaccine that must be received for school?
Answer
Lantibacillin is a suspension of artificially prepared bacterial antigen extracts, containing extracts of Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus pyogenes, Catarrhal Hansemann bacillus, Staphylococcus aureus, and other six bacterial antigens. It has certain efficacy in the treatment and prevention of upper respiratory tract infections. Some preventive vaccines are necessary for children during their growth process, but Lantibacillin should be voluntary rather than a vaccine that must be received for school.
