Immunization is the safest way to protect babies. Here are the lifelong vaccinations that mothers must remember and fully vaccinate their children.
Vaccination is to introduce into the body an antigen that stimulates the body to produce immunity to actively prevent the attack of disease-causing factors.
However, this immunity is very short, lasts only 1 month to about 1 year and not all diseases can be immune, especially whooping cough.

Parents need to pay attention when taking their children for injection?
Parents need to coordinate with an immunization officer such as:
Proactively inform the health worker of your child's health status such as sickness, fever or history of allergies or a strong reaction to previous vaccinations such as high fever, persistent fussiness, or abnormality something else.
You should pay attention to younger children and bring them to medical facilities if you see reactions after vaccination lasting more than 1 day.
When a child has a high fever, mothers can give their child antipyretic drugs but must have the instructions and guidance of the health staff.
Severe post-vaccination reactions are rare, such as anaphylaxis at a rate of 1/1 million doses of vaccine and will pass if detected and managed promptly.
If the child has unusual signs such as high fever, prolonged crying, convulsions, not feeding, difficulty breathing, cyanosis, etc., the child should immediately go to the medical facility.
Immunization is the best way to prevent dangerous infectious diseases for children. Children need to be fully immunized and on schedule to prevent dangerous diseases. Parents should not, because of concerns about the quality of the vaccines or of wondering whether to open vaccinations or services, but miss out on their child's chance of being vaccinated, and the baby's health is the most important thing.
