My child has a reaction/is allergic to eggs. Is vaccination safe?

If the vaccine has been produced from a culture of chicken embryo cells there is a possibility of a hypersensitive reaction in patients exhibiting hypersensitivity to egg proteins (anaphlactic reaction after ingenstion of eggs).  We can offer egg free vaccine choices.

Most vaccine(s) can safely be given to children who have had a severe allergy (anaphylatic reaction) to egg.

If you are worried about how your child will react to the vaccine talk to the doctor before proceeding with immunisation.
