China News Service, March 21. Can cancer patients or groups such as pregnant women and newborns get the new crown vaccine?

Can people who are allergic to penicillin and other drugs fight?

Is there a conflict between vaccinations for the planned immunization of newborns and the new crown vaccine?

At a press conference held on the 21st by the State Council’s Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism, Wang Huaqing, chief expert of the China Center for Disease Control and Prevention's immunization program, responded to this.

  Wang Huaqing said that with regard to cancer patients and pregnant women, according to the results of previous studies, if they are infected with the new crown, the proportion of severe illnesses and the fatality rate are relatively high compared with other people, so they should be vaccinated.

However, there are still relatively few systematic studies on the use of vaccines by cancer patients and pregnant women.

Under normal circumstances, if it is a new vaccine or a live attenuated vaccine, we will not vaccinate pregnant women from a prudent perspective.

  "Of course, with the accumulation of research data in the later period, as a temporary contraindication, it will change. Like the flu vaccine, we do not recommend vaccinating pregnant women, but the incidence of severe illnesses after the flu is relatively high in pregnant women, and the proportion of those who enter the ICU ward It is relatively high and the mortality rate is relatively high in the later stage, so it changed the former taboo as a vaccine and changed pregnant women to the priority group." Wang Huaqing said that as the data continues to improve, the strategy will be adjusted in the later stage.

After being vaccinated, it may be discovered that you are pregnant. Some time ago, the relevant expert group also conducted research on this issue. Based on the characteristics of the current new crown vaccine and the experience of the used vaccine, a conclusion can be drawn if you find that you are pregnant. , I was given the new crown vaccine again. At this time, it is not recommended to take special medical measures for the new crown vaccine, including termination of pregnancy.

However, we recommend that follow-up and regular check-ups during pregnancy should be done later.

  Regarding the issue of allergies, Wang Huaqing said that the proportion of people with a history of allergies in our country is still very large.

This is very clear in the vaccine instructions. If it is a contraindication, the first is that the audience is allergic to the vaccine, and the second is allergic to the vaccine ingredients, which is not vaccinated.

If there is a serious allergy after vaccination, follow-up vaccination is not allowed.

Of course, there are some food allergies, pollen allergies, or other drugs, including penicillin allergy, which can be vaccinated.

  Wang Huaqing said that most allergies are acute allergies, and the proportion that occurs within 30 minutes after vaccination is very large. One of the purposes of staying at the scene for 30 minutes is to prevent other injuries caused by acute allergies, so we require The species stayed on site for 30 minutes after being vaccinated.

  Talking about the possible conflicts between the new crown vaccine and other immunization program vaccines for newborns, Wang Huaqing pointed out that at present, the key populations for vaccination in our country are people over 18 years old, especially people 18-59 years old, and those under 18 years old. Whether the population, including the newborn population, needs to be vaccinated, will be further considered according to the needs of epidemic prevention and control, and based on the improvement of vaccine clinical trial data. At that time, the relevant research on simultaneous vaccination or combined immunization will be carried out to determine The question of whether the new crown vaccine can be vaccinated for newborns and infants at the same time.
