If any of the following conditions apply to your child, talk to your doctor
before getting your child vaccinated.
Children with weak immune systems should not get live virus vaccines (for
example, chickenpox, MMR, or OPV). Because live virus vaccines live and
divide within the person vaccinated, they can cause the actual disease if
the immune system is very weak.
- Your child has egg allergies.
Children who have a severe allergy to eggs should not receive the
influenza vaccine. However, children who are allergic to eggs can receive
all routine immunizations. Although the measles and mumps vaccines are grown
in chick cells, the egg proteins are removed from these vaccines and the
vaccines can be given without having your child skin-tested for an egg
allergy.
