Don't be stopped by these rumors

Since the beginning of this year, domestic vaccination work on the new crown vaccine has been carried out in an orderly manner.

When the vaccination work was carried out in an orderly manner, there were many rumors about the new crown vaccine on the Internet: you can take off the mask after the new crown vaccine, you can not get the new crown vaccine for allergies, and you will have a fever and swelling face after the new crown vaccine.

Can I take off my mask after getting the new crown vaccine?

The truth : protective measures such as wearing masks are still needed

Masks are a great hero in preventing the spread of the new crown virus.

In this regard, Feng Zijian, deputy director of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention , gave a negative answer at the press conference of the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council .

Feng Zijian said that there are two issues that need to be considered: on the one hand, the current global epidemic has not completely subsided; on the other hand, my country's vaccination rate is still low, and there is still a long way to go from a high level of population immunity.

Moreover, relevant experts said that the protection rate of any vaccine is not 100%, and the same is true for the new crown vaccine.

"Before the new crown vaccination rate in our country reaches a high level, the general public must still strengthen their awareness of protection and develop good personal hygiene habits.

The new coronavirus will mutate, and the vaccine is useless?

The truth : vaccines are not in vain, they can build a basic immune barrier

"The current vaccine is only for the current epidemic of the new coronavirus.

In this regard, Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention researcher, World Health Organization vaccine development committee consultant Shao Yiming, said in an interview made it clear that: The new vaccine will not Bust crown.

Shao Yiming said that in the face of the new coronavirus variant, the level of neutralizing antibodies induced by the new coronavirus vaccine may decrease, that is, the protective efficacy of the vaccine may decrease.

According to media reports, a research report recently released by the Butantan Institute in São Paulo State, Brazil, showed that the Claive Covid-19 vaccine developed by China and Brazil can effectively combat the mutant new coronaviruses that have emerged in Brazil, the United Kingdom and South Africa.

In addition, according to the latest information released by the World Health Organization, from the global monitoring of the mutation of the new coronavirus, there is no evidence to prove that the existing new coronavirus vaccine will be invalid in the face of the virus variant.

Will you have a fever and face swelling after receiving the new crown vaccine?

The truth : the incidence of adverse reactions is low

The number of doses of "140 million" seems to be a lot, but in fact, due to my country's large population base, the domestic vaccination rate is much lower than that of the United Kingdom and the United States, and the new crown vaccination rate can only produce herd immunity when it reaches 70% to 80%.

Obviously, the number of vaccination doses in our country is far from enough.

Wang Huaqing, chief expert of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention's immunization program, once stated at a press conference of the State Council's Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism that the new crown vaccine is a foreign antigen to the human body.

In other words, not everyone will have adverse reactions after being vaccinated with the new crown vaccine, and only a small number of people will have symptoms of discomfort.

So what are the common adverse reactions after vaccination with the new crown vaccine?

A few days ago, a reporter from Science and Technology Daily signed the "Informed Consent for Inoculation of New Coronavirus Inactivated Vaccine" during community vaccination, which clearly pointed out that the local adverse reactions after vaccination were mainly pain at the vaccination site, including local itching and swelling.
, Induration and flushing, etc.
The main systemic adverse reactions are fatigue and fatigue, and also include fever, muscle pain, headache, cough, diarrhea, nausea, anorexia and allergies.

After the vaccination is completed, the vaccinated person must stay at the vaccination site for 30 minutes before leaving if there is no abnormality.
The on-site staff will inform the recipients of the common adverse reactions and precautions of the new coronavirus vaccine.
If the recipients have a fever or continue to be unwell after returning home, they should report to the vaccination site and seek medical attention in time.

Can't get a vaccine for allergies?

The truth : general allergies are not contraindicated in vaccination

On March 29, the official website of the National Health Commission released the "New Coronavirus Vaccination Technical Guidelines (First Edition)" (hereinafter referred to as the "Vaccination Guidelines"), which listed five types of vaccination contraindications, two of which are related to Allergic reactions are related.
Therefore, there are rumors that people with allergies cannot get the new crown vaccine.
Is this true?

In response, An Zhijie, deputy director of the Immunization Program Center of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said that general allergies, such as allergic rhinitis, pollen allergies, etc.
, are not directly related to the new crown vaccine components and are not in the scope of contraindications for vaccination.

There are also people who are allergic to antibiotics such as penicillin.
Can these people get the new crown vaccine? In this regard, An Zhijie pointed out that the current new crown virus vaccine does not contain antibiotics, so antibiotic allergy is not a contraindication to vaccination.

It is worth noting that the two categories of allergy-related vaccination contraindications pointed out in the "Vaccination Guide" include: those who are allergic to the active ingredients of the vaccine, any inactive ingredients, substances used in the production process, or those who have previously received similar vaccines People who have allergies from time to time; people who have had severe allergic reactions to vaccines in the past, such as acute allergic reactions, angioedema, etc.

In a nutshell, people who are concerned about this must first distinguish their allergies and consult professional physicians for vaccination recommendations.

Are different brands of vaccines ineffective?

Truth : No research data for the time being, special circumstances can be used to fight

At present, my country has 4 kinds of new crown vaccines approved to be marketed conditionally, of which 3 are inactivated vaccines and need to be vaccinated twice; 1 is an adenovirus vector vaccine and only needs to be vaccinated once.
There is also a recombinant protein vaccine approved for emergency use, requiring 3 doses.
For vaccines that require multiple doses, there are rumors that different brands of vaccines are not effective.
Is it really the truth?

Previously, He Qinghua, the first-level inspector of the CDC of the National Health Commission, said that more research is needed on whether vaccines produced by different companies can be superimposed or replaced.
After the research results come out, the relevant departments will put forward clear policy measures based on the research results.

Subsequently, the "Vaccination Guide" was released, giving a clearer answer: at this stage, it is recommended to use the same brand of vaccine products to complete the vaccination.
In case of special circumstances such as the inability to continue supply of vaccines and the recipients are vaccinated in different places, and the same vaccine product cannot be used to complete the vaccination, the same type of vaccine product from other manufacturers can be used to complete the vaccination.

"Currently, all domestically marketed COVID-19 vaccines have been reviewed and approved by the competent government departments and are safe and effective.
The public can vaccinate as soon as possible in accordance with the unified arrangement of the region.
" He Qinghua said.
