Follow-up to problematic vaccines: The 4 most urgent issues after Shandong identifies vaccine leakage

In the past few days, \”vaccine\” and \”immortality\” have almost become keywords that dominate the screen, and they have also touched the hearts of countless mothers. Since July 15th, \”problematic vaccine\” incidents have been exposed frequently! First, it was revealed that Changsheng Biotechnology’s “rabies vaccine” had falsified production records. Fortunately, it has been effectively controlled before it leaves the factory and goes on sale. (Data source: National Medical Products Administration) But within a few days, the \”problematic vaccine\” was not eliminated, but intensified. On July 19, Changsheng Biotechnology issued an announcement that it had received a penalty decision regarding the old case of \”DPT vaccine\”: because the \”potency determination\” item of the test results did not meet the regulations, it would be treated as an inferior drug. (Source: Jilin Food and Drug Administration) Public opinion was in an uproar. Countless parents were about to explode. Moments were flooded with messages for several days. What does this \”potency measurement discrepancy\” mean? DPT vaccine is a \”trivalent combination vaccine\” that can prevent diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough. However, during the test, it did not fully comply with the potency determination of the Central Medical Examination Institute. To put it simply, after receiving this vaccine, the immune effect is insufficient. According to the national immunization schedule, the DPT vaccine is still a \”Category I vaccine\”, which means that it is a must-vaccination for children. Children will receive spaced vaccinations starting at 3 months old, with a total of 4 shots until they are two years old. As early as October last year, this batch of vaccines was revealed to be \”problematic.\” However, there was a time difference of more than 9 months between the time when the punishment was imposed and when the old case was filed. Within these nine months, nearly 250,000 doses of DPT vaccine were sold to Shandong. Seeing that hundreds of thousands of problematic vaccines have been injected into children\’s bodies, it is inevitable that we will feel panic. It is absolutely true to say that vaccines are related to the health of millions of children. The health of the child is the life of the parent. As a parent, how can you not be anxious? Parents are flipping through vaccination books. Many mothers are eagerly looking through their children’s vaccination records in the circle of friends. Many people had just put their children to bed. As soon as they saw the news, they got up in the middle of the night and compared them one by one. Regardless of whether their children have received vaccines from this company, everyone is full of confusion: Why is this happening? Who will protect my child? Who can give us a sense of security? Ifeng.com comments: Please give the public an explanation for the tragedy of vaccines! The Procuratorate Daily angrily questioned: If vaccine production records are falsified, can an apology solve the problem? Xie Na also cried distressedly on Weibo: It seemed that overnight, the entire Internet was filled with anxiety and anger. Like all mothers, I thought I would be panicked and helpless. But I understand that anger alone cannot solve the problem. I forced myself, the more urgent it was, the calmer I had to be. After all, at this time, we are our children’s heaven. We have more important things to do than be angry. So, I got up overnight to search and view almost all the information and materials, and marked and integrated the key and useful content. Early in the morning, I called several friends at the hospital to inquire in detail and verify again and again. Every mother and child are friends of life and death. In the face of difficulties, we must help each other! I have sorted out the issues that everyone is extremely concerned about, hoping to bring some peace of mind to mothers. What will happen to my children? At present, what is causing everyone the most confusion and panic isThese are the four questions: 1-How do you check if your children have received any problematic vaccines? 2-What will be the consequences if a child receives a faulty vaccine? 3-If the vaccine is ineffective, does the child need to be revaccinated? 4-Can I still get vaccinated in the future? How to confirm whether your child has received the problematic vaccine? The problematic vaccine reported this time is Changchun Changsheng Biotech\’s DPT vaccine, which was filed last year. The batch number and flow direction are as follows: Also reported at the time was Wuhan Biotech\’s DPT vaccine. Diphtheria Tetanus Vaccine: (Source: Xinhua News Agency) As the “King of Vaccines”, Changsheng Biotechnology, almost many children have received vaccines from this manufacturer. My hometown is Shandong, and I lived with my son in Hebei for two years, so I have been vaccinated in both places. When I checked for the first time, I saw \”Changsheng Biotech\” and \”Wuhan Biotech\” in the manufacturing company column, so we also received vaccines from both factories. But mothers should not be heartbroken just by looking at this manufacturing company. The key thing to check is the batch number of the vaccine. This is my vaccination booklet in Hebei and Shandong. The vaccination booklets in each region are different. You can check the \”vaccine batch number\” column and compare it. We can quickly check and judge: Is it possible that the child has received a \”problem vaccine\”? When the judgment is uncertain, you can also \”consult the vaccination unit\” to find out whether any problematic vaccines have been introduced and confirm the batch number of your child\’s vaccine. The vaccination booklet will have the telephone number of the vaccination unit on the first page. In addition, you can also log in to the \”Immunization Program Center of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention\” (website: http://nip.chinacdc.cn/) for online consultation, or directly Dial the \”12320 health hotline\” for telephone consultation. (Source: Chinese Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) What will be the consequences of receiving a faulty vaccine? If your child has received a problematic vaccine, don’t be too anxious. Regarding safety, experts from the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention have confirmed that it may affect the immune protection effect, but there is no safety risk. Vaccine expert Tao Lina also said that if the vaccine is not up to standard, there may be two hazards: the first is due to the impurities contained in the vaccine, which causes an increase in adverse reactions, which is a direct or obvious health damage; and the second is due to the protective power. Not enough, causing invisible health damage. If it contains impurities, they will generally show up relatively quickly after vaccination. The problematic vaccines in this incident were mostly caused by the second hazard: insufficient protection. I received an ineffective vaccine, do I need to get a revaccination? If I receive an ineffective vaccine, do I need to get a revaccination? There is no official statement yet. But yesterday, People\’s Daily Online also expressed its hope that relevant departments would give their opinions as soon as possible. Like everyone else, I will continue to follow the official statements. Once there are authoritative opinions, I will announce them in the message area of ​​the article as soon as possible. At present, according to an interview with vaccine expert Tao Lina, what can be learned is that because the problem with this vaccine is that the trivalent vaccine has insufficient potency, it is necessary to check which diseases the child is not immune to. It is necessary to wait for the inspection before proceeding with the corresponding vaccination. Can I still get vaccinated in the future? Regarding whether vaccines can still be vaccinated in the future? Of course! Of course we must get the vaccines that should be given. We cannot go back to not having them.The age of vaccine protection. Because that would mean more illness or death. The People\’s Daily also said: Vaccination is still the most economical and effective public health intervention measure in modern medicine to prevent and control infectious diseases. It’s just that we should try our best to choose formal and large medical institutions and epidemic prevention centers to vaccinate. Staff from the 12320 Health Center said: As long as the vaccination is carried out in a designated hospital, the source of the vaccine can be checked by the doctor at the vaccination hospital at that time. Each vaccine has a number and can be traced to its source. Please check it thoroughly! It is undeniable that this \”problematic vaccine\” incident has indeed caused us a lot of anger and panic. Liu Qiangdong and Zhang Ziyi also expressed their anger: Children’s vaccines can be faked, what else can’t be done! ? But we also know that at this time, we cannot let anger swallow up our reason! We will not tolerate companies that have such vaccine safety issues this time! As the People\’s Daily said: Only by getting to the bottom of it can we relieve the anxiety of dependence! Vaccines are related to life and health, and there is no room for any flaws in quality and safety, nor can there be any chance. For faulty vaccines, it is important to investigate and deal with them together; but it is more important to find the root cause of the problem in each incident. Indeed, we should all be in awe of life. No one can withstand another torment. We need a down-to-earth answer, for the sake of justice and truth, and for the sake of our most precious child! They are our future. Whoever dares to harm our children is our common enemy. My child, no matter in the past, present or future, I love you like my life. Keeping you safe is my most important responsibility now; growing up with you is my most beautiful expectation for the future! This is my dream and every parent’s dream! Maybe I can\’t give you a perfect new world, but I will definitely stand with you to fight against the evil in this world.
