Usually babies need to get the 2nd dose of Hepatitis B vaccine at full moon.
According to the order and timing of vaccination in the National Immunization Program, BCG vaccine and the 1st dose of Hepatitis B vaccine are given at birth; babies should receive the 2nd dose of Hepatitis B vaccine when they reach full term, i.e. 1 month of age.
At 2 months of age, the 1st dose of inactivated polio vaccine; at 3 months of age, the 2nd dose of inactivated polio vaccine and the 1st dose of DPT vaccine; at 4 months of age, the oral live attenuated polio vaccine and the 2nd dose of DPT vaccine; at 5 months of age, the 3rd dose of DPT vaccine; and at 6 months of age, the 1st dose of group A influenza vaccine and the 3rd dose of Hepatitis B vaccine. So, the baby’s full moon shot is the 2nd Hepatitis B vaccine.
Hepatitis B vaccine is very important. Newborn babies have poor defense against hepatitis B virus, and if they are not vaccinated early, they will be easily infected with hepatitis B virus.
Parents should actively cooperate and take their children to complete the vaccination in time according to the immunization schedule to ensure their children’s health.
