Can I get a rabies vaccination if I accidentally get scratched or scratched by a pet during pregnancy? Can I get a tetanus vaccination if I pierce a nail? And so on. Many mothers-to-be have these questions. Vaccines can be broadly divided into two categories: “inactivated vaccines” and “non-inactivated vaccines”. For pregnant women, inactivated vaccines can be given, while attenuated or live vaccines cannot be given. Inactivated vaccines mean that the microorganisms in the vaccine have been killed by chemical or physical means, and only the components of these microorganisms are sufficient for the body to develop immunity. Tetanus vaccine, for example, can be used during pregnancy. Attenuated or live vaccines are those made from microorganisms that have been weakened in their pathogenicity, and they must be live in order for the body to become immune. For example, measles vaccine and rubella vaccine are among such vaccines and are contraindicated during pregnancy. What are the vaccines that are contraindicated during pregnancy? The following vaccines are live attenuated virus vaccines and are contraindicated during pregnancy: measles vaccine, rubella vaccine, mumps vaccine, varicella vaccine, BCG vaccine. In addition, there is no clear evidence that HPV vaccine is harmful to the fetus when administered to a pregnant woman, but because of insufficient research data, vaccination is not recommended during pregnancy. Can these vaccines be administered during pregnancy? 1. These vaccines can be prophylactically administered to pregnant women exposed to high risk: Hepatitis B vaccine is a recombinant vaccine and can be administered during pregnancy if exposed to high risk prophylaxis; Hepatitis A vaccine is an inactivated virus vaccine and can be administered during pregnancy if exposed to high risk prophylaxis; Pneumococcal vaccine is an inactivated bacterial vaccine and the indications for vaccination do not change due to pregnancy and the vaccine is only used for high risk groups. 2. These vaccines can be given to pregnant women but are not routinely recommended: meningococcal vaccine is an inactivated bacterial vaccine, indications for vaccination do not change due to pregnancy, and vaccination during pregnancy is recommended in the case of unusual outbreaks; typhoid vaccine is an inactivated bacterial vaccine, and is not routinely recommended during pregnancy unless close, continuous exposure or travel to endemic areas. 3.These vaccines can be administered in case of unexpected conditions during pregnancy: rabies vaccine is an inactivated virus vaccine for prevention after being bitten or scratched by dogs or other animals and can be administered during pregnancy; tetanus toxoid is used for prevention after a wound has been contaminated and can be administered during pregnancy. 4, there is a class of biological agents, although can not be called a vaccine, but also used for disease prevention: rabies immunoglobulin is specific immunoglobulin, for post-exposure prophylaxis, pregnancy can be inoculated, with rabies vaccine; tetanus immunoglobulin is specific immunoglobulin, for post-exposure prophylaxis, pregnancy can be inoculated, with tetanus toxoid use; chickenpox immunoglobulin is specific immune globulin, which can be considered to be given to healthy pregnant women exposed to varicella to protect the mother rather than to prevent congenital infection of the fetus. Breastfeeding women can receive any vaccine. Breastfeeding will not affect the vaccine and the vaccine will not affect breast milk. If a woman preparing for pregnancy receives a vaccine that is contraindicated during pregnancy, then it is recommended that the vaccine be given one month before pregnancy. Finally, there is no evidence that any vaccination during pregnancy causes fetal health damage, and even if a live virus vaccine is contraindicated, the effect on the fetus is unknown, so it is not recommended to easily terminate a pregnancy because of such vaccinations.
