A net post vowed that the measles vaccine contains a big conspiracy of American imperialism: adding high-tech bactericidal toxin to the vaccine, so that the people of China will lose their children and grandchildren!
There are quite a few people who believe in these net posts. 20 1 1 Colleges and universities in Shandong Province carry out measles vaccination, and many college students are unwilling to get vaccinated because they are afraid that the vaccine will affect their fertility.
"This is all a rumor!" When the reporter asked Sun Xiaodong, director of the Shanghai Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention, he said without hesitation.
Will measles vaccine be sterilized? Fake!
Most rumors of "sterilized vaccine" originated from 20 10.
In September of that year, the former Ministry of Health implemented "measles vaccine supplementary immunization": children aged 8 months to 14 years old, regardless of whether they had measles before and how many times they had been vaccinated with measles vaccine, should be given another shot.
This "one size fits all" approach has aroused parents' concern: Will it be harmful to vaccinate again and again?
The health department came forward to refute the rumor and explained that the measles vaccine in China is an authentic "domestic product"; Measles vaccine was not purified until 199 1.
This rumor has caused a new problem: you see, the measles vaccine has been tampered with by Holland! Since then, whenever measles vaccine is introduced everywhere, the rumor of "disinfection vaccine" is "salted fish reborn"
Why is the vaccine purified in Holland?
Sun Xiaodong explained: "In the past, our technology failed to pass the test, and we could not control the impurities in the vaccine at a very low level. Vaccine has many impurities and many adverse reactions, so it needs to be purified by introducing foreign technology. Now China's vaccine purification technology is already very high, and there is no need to invite foreign experts. "
Sun Xiaodong pointed out that there is no scientific basis to prove that there is a "sterilized vaccine" in the world; The most serious adverse reactions of measles vaccination are anaphylactic shock and anaphylactoid purpura, which have nothing to do with infertility.
Children who miss vaccination may also be infected with measles.
"The child's immune function has not developed well, and there is a lack of vaccine, which is likely to be infected with measles." Sun Xiaodong said.
According to the national children's immunization program, children must be vaccinated with two doses of measles vaccine when they are eight months old: measles vaccine or leprosy vaccine (measles-rubella combined vaccine), and measles vaccine or measles-mumps-rubella combined vaccine (measles-mumps-rubella combined vaccine) when they are one and a half to two years old. Immunization programs in some areas such as Shanghai also stipulate that children need to be vaccinated with a dose of triple vaccine when they are 4 years old.
But the reality is that many parents only take their children for measles vaccination once, thinking that this is enough. That was not the case.
The principle of measles vaccine supplementation for children is "use as needed". Public hospitals in cities, community health service centers, or township hospitals and clinics all provide free services for children's vaccination.
If the child needs to replant two or more doses, it is necessary to ensure that the interval between the two vaccinations is at least one month.
