Getting vaccinated can help our body generate antibodies and have a good effect on disease prevention. Nowadays, many vaccines are free, while others are self funded. If you want to get a self funded vaccine, you need to prepare in advance. So, what are the self funded vaccines?
1. Individual vaccines: There are many types of self funded individual vaccines, including rotavirus vaccine, chickenpox vaccine, cholera vaccine, influenza vaccine, pneumonia vaccine, among which pneumonia vaccine includes 13 valent, 8 valent, and 6 valent vaccines. You can choose self funded vaccines according to the situation. If your child is prone to respiratory infections, you can get the flu vaccine in a timely manner before the flu season. If the child has not yet gone to kindergarten and has less contact with the outside world, there is no need to hit them.
2. Combination vaccines: including quadruple vaccines, pentavalent vaccines, etc. The quadruple vaccine refers to the combination of Haemophilus influenzae vaccine and pertussis vaccine, while the quadruple vaccine refers to the combination of Haemophilus influenzae vaccine, pertussis vaccine, and poliomyelitis vaccine. The quadruple vaccine and pentavalent vaccine actually include free vaccines, but this combination vaccine can reduce the frequency of vaccination and is generally more expensive.
Therefore, when choosing self funded vaccines, especially combination vaccines, in addition to considering the child's own physical condition, the decision should also be made based on economic strength. If the family has sufficient economic conditions, it is recommended to take the child for vaccination.
