Not that we know. Nearly all vaccines have been reported to be associated with the fainting. Post-vaccination fainting has been most frequently reported after three vaccines commonly given to adolescents (HPV, MenACWY, and Tdap). However, the association with these vaccines may simply reflect the fact that adolescents are generally more likely to experience fainting in response to pain or anxiety.

Large Study Affirms Cardiovascular Safety of COVID-19 Vaccines in England A recent study published in Nature Communications provides robust evidence supporting the cardiovascular safety of COVID-19 vaccines among millions of adults in England. Amid the global health crisis caused by the rapid spread of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the development and distribution of vaccines were pivotal in mitigating the pandemic’s impact.

The guidance for handling after reconstitution is the same for both brands of MMR vaccine (MMRII and Priorix). It is preferable to administer MMR immediately after reconstitution. If not used immediately, the reconstituted vaccine should be store refrigerated (2°C to 8°C [36°F to 46°F]) until use. If reconstituted MMR is not used within 8 hours, it must be discarded.

📢 𝗠𝘆𝘁𝗵-𝗕𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴: 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝘁𝗵 𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 "𝗣𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀" 𝗩𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀! 💉 Many parents believe that a "painless" vaccine means their child won't experience any pain during vaccination. This is a myth! 😲 👉 Not all vaccines are 'painless'. This term primarily refers to the DPT vaccine, given at 6, 10, and 14 weeks of age, plus two booster doses. 🔍 Currently, two forms of the Pertussis vaccine are available: - Whole-cell Pertussis - Acellular Pertussis 💡 Whole-cell Pertussis vaccines can cause fever, pain, and swelling at the injection site for 2-3 days post-vaccination. This variant is available under the national immunisation schedule in government hospitals. ⚖️ Both variants have similar efficacy. Remember, apart from DPT, no other vaccines are considered "painless". #Vaccination #Parenting #ChildHealth #MythBusting #HealthAwareness
