Questions
Which vaccines do newborns need? My baby is a preemie, and I’ve been very worried about the child’s condition from the start. Recently, the child has been experiencing a series of symptoms, and I’m very concerned, afraid that the situation might worsen.
Answers
Newborns need to receive a dose of hepatitis B vaccine at birth, a dose of BCG vaccine within 24 hours, and if the child’s weight is below 2500g, the BCG vaccine should be administered later. For children affected by newborn diseases, mothers must take their children to the doctor for treatment promptly to avoid various misconceptions and receive timely symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication. For parents, it is important to give children enough care and attention, and to do everything possible to help them receive timely treatment for their illnesses.
