Symptoms caused by Haemophilus influenzae type B
20% of children by the age of 1 and 50% of children by the age of 5 have it settled in their noses.
Many are asymptomatic, but when the child's immune system is weakened, the bacteria multiply and cause systemic infections.
Routine vaccinations can be given up to the age of 5, but if the first vaccination starts at 7 months of age, the rules regarding the interval between vaccinations and the number of times to complete the vaccinations will change, so be careful.
If there are no special reasons, let's get the first vaccination at the age of 2 months by simultaneous vaccination with rota vaccine, type B vaccine, pneumococcal vaccine for children, etc.!
Simultaneous inoculation with 4 kinds of mixture from 3 months after birth.
