Question
Is it appropriate for a child to receive the hepatitis A vaccine after recovering from a fever during hot weather?
Answer
As long as the child is not feverish and has no infection, hot weather does not affect vaccine administration. It is recommended to get vaccinated after the temperature drops or to have the hepatitis A vaccine administered as soon as possible after recovery. A feverish reaction may occur after vaccination, but if the body temperature is not high, drinking plenty of water is sufficient.
