Experts explained to the Russians under what conditions one should refrain from being vaccinated against coronavirus.
For several months now, doctors have been saying that compulsory vaccination is the only way to defeat the pandemic. Neither quarantine, nor wearing personal protective equipment, nor maintaining social distance will be able to give such a result as a massive campaign for vaccinations with drugs to produce antibodies. It is reported that most chronic diseases and allergic reactions cannot justify an exemption from vaccination. However, according to doctors, there is still a certain category of people who should postpone or even refuse vaccination altogether.
So, there can be only two reasons for obtaining a medical disqualification from vaccination. The first is a severe allergic reaction and human hypersensitivity to the components of previously administered vaccines. These include Quincke’s edema or anaphylactic shock, if similar conditions have occurred previously with the introduction of any other vaccine. People with a history of similar manifestations are observed and regularly examined by allergists and can receive a certificate that vaccination is impossible.
It is worth noting that allergies to pollen, dust or certain foods are not a contraindication to vaccination. It is known that Russian vaccines for covid are hypoallergenic, because their components do not intersect with food, which can be found in other preparations, which can cause cross-allergy.
Other reasons, which are indicated in the recommendations of drug manufacturers and in the recommendations of the Ministry of Health, are considered as a good reason for temporary refusal to vaccinate. This is necessary in order to wait some time until the general state of health and well-being normalizes. A contraindication is not the chronic disease itself, but its exacerbation at a certain moment.
The second contraindication for vaccination is if a person has experienced a serious reaction to previously administered vaccines. Such a reaction can be expressed in the form of high and prolonged temperature, redness and swelling at the injection site larger than 8 cm.As already reported, a slight increase in temperature immediately after vaccination is absolutely normal and cannot be a contraindication in the future. Here, only the really high temperature matters – above 40 degrees.
