Hand, foot, and mouth disease is a very common disease, especially in children, and this disease is more likely to occur. And now there are reports that the EV71 vaccine, which is specifically designed to deal with hand, foot, and mouth disease, has been popularized, and many children can receive the vaccine. But before vaccination, there are still many people who are not very familiar with this vaccine. Many people are curious about the price of the EV71 vaccine.
EV71 vaccine price
It's about 280 yuan per injection, requiring 2 injections, totaling 560 yuan. The hand, foot, and mouth disease vaccine is a self funded vaccine developed and launched in China in 2016 to prevent hand, foot, and mouth disease caused by EV71 infection. Its price is not cheap among vaccines, and the price of hand, foot, and mouth disease vaccines in most provinces and cities is around 200 yuan per dose. However, there may be slight differences in vaccine prices across different regions.
At what age should EV71 vaccine be administered
The currently available hand, foot and mouth disease vaccine targets children aged 6 months to 3 years old. The reason is that the younger the age, the more severe the symptoms after being infected with enterovirus type 71 hand, foot and mouth disease. 91% of severe hand, foot and mouth disease cases occur in children under 3 years old, while older children and adults have milder or asymptomatic symptoms after infection. Encourage completion of vaccination procedures before the age of 12 months, with children aged 1 year and above getting vaccinated as early as possible. For children over 5 years old and adults, most have already obtained immunity through natural infection, and it is generally not recommended to receive the EV71 vaccine.
I believe many people have a certain understanding of the EV71 vaccine, and the price of this vaccine may vary slightly in different regions. Generally speaking, this vaccine is more suitable for children under 5 years old, and other populations generally do not need to receive this vaccine again. Parents must pay more attention to children under 5 years old in their daily lives. Special attention should be paid to their living hygiene, so that hand, foot, and mouth disease is not easily detected by them.
