What should I do if I have been vaccinated against flu by a cold patient?

You have the flu you were given! The vaccine is administered to a healthy person so that antibodies to the virus are produced. And in a sick person, immunity can not cope with the vaccine and the virus begins to act pathologically. Apparently you will have to drink antibiotics. Go to the doctor who vaccinated you, he will prescribe antibiotics sensitive to the virus that introduced

I will not go into the details of the description of the consequences( doctors do not know) of this procedure for problems with health in children-bone marrow( leukemia, applastic anemia), and adults develop cancer with localization in the inflamed tissue. Therefore, monitor the composition, blood indicators and where there is inflammation, there may be a tumor. If it's bronchitis, t can be lung cancer. It would be advisable to drink a sweaty decoction: dog rose, lemon-toe, add aloe juice.

The protective effect of vaccinations persists for at least one year, and after two to three years of consistent vaccination - for two years or more. However, there is one "but" - the flu virus easily mutates, and now there are several of its varieties. The introduced vaccine creates immunity only against one particular species. In addition, a person may well become infected not dominant in this season, but another kind of infection. Which also spreads, albeit in smaller numbers, and is looking for a "victim." Therefore, the effectiveness of vaccination, according to various estimates, does not exceed 50-60%.
Do not forget about the adverse reactions that may occur with the use of vaccines: Local reactions are the most common effects. They are expressed in the form of redness at the injection site. These are short-term events that usually take place within 1-2 days. Nonspecific systemic reactions include fever, chills, malaise and myalgia. Usually occur 6-12 hours after vaccination and last no more than 1-2 days. Hypersensitivity is a rare reaction, which is supposedly allergic in nature.
Serious contraindications for vaccinations are the following:
acute disease;
is an allergy to chicken protein;
bronchial asthma;
diffuse connective tissue diseases;
adrenal gland disease;
diseases of the nervous system;
chronic lung and upper respiratory disease;
cardiovascular insufficiency and hypertension II and III stages;
kidney disease;
of the endocrine system;
blood diseases
Risk groups: small children and the elderly, as well as patients with chronic cardiovascular and broncho-pulmonary diseases. These patients often exacerbate their chronic diseases: rheumatism, tuberculosis, bronchitis and others. Of course, complications can occur in any other person. But, as a rule, in the event that he does not comply with bed rest and recommendations of a doctor. In order to decide whether or not to be vaccinated against influenza, the first thing to objectively assess the likelihood of infection with the flu is you. If you are at risk and the danger is high enough, you should consider whether there are any possible complications in your case. If they are very likely, go straight to your doctor about whether you can inject a flu vaccine. In the case of a negative answer, you will not have to think about anything. In the case of a positive doctor's answer, weigh all the pros and cons and make a decision.
Well, if you do not belong to the risk group, and complications are unlikely - do not overtake fear. And then you can and "get scared" get sick.

is your solution. My mother-in-law does every year, says she is less sick. Daughters do at school, sick for the whole school.year about 2-3 times. I never did myself, but if I start to get sick, then the cold usually shows up. I still did not have to choose whether to do it or not, but I think I'll try it when I propose and compare before and after

I never did because I think this shit is crap..Those who at least once made it to love the flu( I'm talking about those whom I know)

Here the question is ambiguous. If you can know exactly what kind of vaccination.whose production, as in what terms and under what conditions they will do, it certainly stands. Provided that you do not abuse them now and do not feel well. In this state, the vaccine can not be done, and even there are many contraindications, you should explain everything. Because when we get vaccinated, it seems like nothing terrible, made a shot and went, and it's not. When we were with children abroad, we had to vaccinate them, so we had to take a lot of tests, we watched us for almost a week, for our well-being, and these vaccinations have different production, and there are kotorey calculated for 4 doses, that is, as soon as they open the ampoule,should be immediately used, and not so keep open until the next patient. If you can control all this, then of course it is worth doing, the flu is now so gone that it is not so terrible as the consequences after it. ..
Vaccination against the flu
Vaccination against influenza, prevention of the disease is a very important point. Warnings are always more important than healing later. To date, there is no panacea for influenza, there is not a single miracle drug that guarantees a quick and complete cure, so vaccinations against influenza act as prevention of the disease. It is very important to prevent the disease by vaccinating on time. Every year more and more people are grafted from this dangerous disease.
However, there are both opponents and supporters of this procedure. There is no clear, concrete answer about the benefits or harm of vaccination against influenza. Vaccination should be carried out after studies and individually.
This vaccination is not included in the vaccination calendar and is paid for an adult, but for children it is still free of charge.
Vaccination against influenza in Russia occurs voluntarily, each person has the right to make his choice - for or against, and for the kids the choice is made by the parent.
The word "flu" comes from the French "grab", "catch".The definition speaks of the suddenness and rapidity of the virus's entry into the body. Influenza is a dangerous infectious disease that occurs acutely and affects usually the respiratory system and is expressed by the following symptoms:
- high fever;
- sharp weakness;
- general deterioration;
- pain in the head;
- pain in the muscles;
- nausea, vomiting.
Dangerous influenza viruses, in what danger, indications
Influenza can be affected at any time of the year. But usually people get sick all the same in the autumn and in the winter, because at this time the body lacks vitamins, the premises are not ventilated and temperature drops occur. In the autumn-winter period, the epidemic of the disease usually occurs. Small children, whose age is more than half a year, can get sick, as the antibodies transmitted by the mother cease to have a protective function. The virus causes influenza A, B, and C. Influenza virus is easily mutated, so flu and flu vaccine should be given annually to children and adults. Once the virus enters the upper respiratory tract, it immediately captures the mucosa and destroys its cells.Cells are rejected and during coughing, sneezing, breathing enter the external environment, infecting others. Such infection is called in medicine "air-drop path".You can get into and through personal hygiene items, underwear. Once the virus has entered the body, the symptoms of the disease begin to manifest, a sharp weakness appears, up to 40 degrees the body temperature rises, the head turns, even convulsions may develop, the mucus and the throat pershit out of the nose. When a person has been ill with the flu, it acquires a kind of immunity to the disease, but the problem is that the virus mutates and the antibodies that are developed will not have any protection in the fight against the mutated virus.
Influenza is very dangerous, because it completely suppresses the human immune system. In addition, the flu provokes an aggravation of other diseases.
Complications after infection may be as follows:
- acute pulmonary inflammation;
- otitis media;
- changes in the work of the central nervous system;
- altered processes in the work of the heart and blood vessels.
- including children, who often have different infections;
- diagnosed with bronchial asthma;
- suffering from CNS diseases;
- with heart disease or vascular problems;
- with kidney disease;
- with blood diseases;
- who have diabetes mellitus;
- with deficiency of the body's defense system;
- who go to kindergartens and schools.
An effective influenza vaccine is improved every year, as the virus is constantly mutating. The experience of scientists allows creating an effective and safe vaccine. The vaccination with the drug that was made this year will be ineffective next year, and therefore the vaccination against the flu with the improved drug is carried out annually. As the statistics have shown, the vaccine works, but can not guarantee 100% that the person will not get sick, but even if infected, the disease will proceed in a lighter manner and severe consequences will not occur.
Best vaccine against influenza, vaccination scheme, when should be vaccinated against the flu
For vaccination, live and inactivated vaccines are used today. Live vaccines are now used very rarely, as the development of live vaccines of the newest generation is underway. But the inactivated vaccine practically does not give serious consequences. This vaccine can be:- whole cell;
- split vaccine;
- subunit.
The difference between the drugs is that they differently split the virus into the component particles. The whole cell vaccine causes complications, has contraindications, but at the same time creates a stable immunity to influenza. The most dangerous to date are the second and third type of vaccine. They practically do not give complications. These drugs do not harm even a child, actively stimulate the immune system and do not cause adverse reactions. Today, 11 influenza vaccines are used and allowed in Russia. Most often do the vaccination with drugs:
- "Flux-Arix";
- "Vaksigripp";
- "Begrivac";
- "Influvac";
- "Grippol".
How does the
vaccine work After the drug is injected into a person, the process of producing antibodies occurs. This creates a layered protection.14 days after vaccination, the body accumulates a sufficient number of antibodies, and the body does not perceive the disease. Protective protein immediately recognizes the virus and eliminates it.Immunity persists for up to six months or throughout the year. The effectiveness of immunization reaches 90%.This means that the probability of catching the flu is, but it is negligible compared to if the vaccination was not done in time. Today there is a standard vaccination scheme. Vaccination begins in September or October, due to which by the winter the body develops immunity to influenza. It is very important to get vaccinated before the epidemic. Babies can be vaccinated after the age of six months. Babies who have not yet been vaccinated against influenza, it is recommended to vaccinate twice in half the dosage for an adult with an interval of 30 days. The inoculation is done intramuscularly or very deep under the skin.
Modern influenza vaccines practically do not give a negative reaction after administration, occasionally vaccinated people may have fever or swelling around the injection site. You can not vaccinate people who are allergic to a particular component of the drug, such as a protein or preservative. Do not administer the vaccine during the period of illness. You can only be vaccinated a month after the illness has passed. You can not get a flu shot if there were complications during the previous vaccination.
Vaccination must be done in a licensed medical facility. Vaccination should be carried out by an experienced doctor. After the drug has been introduced, the doctor must issue a certificate, which will include all the data on the drug. You can not buy the vaccine alone. Science today has proven the high efficacy of anti-influenza drugs, especially for toddlers at risk. One should or should not be vaccinated - this should be discussed with the pediatrician and individually.
Consequences after vaccination, rules for grafting
After vaccination, the following complications can not often occur:- Inflammation of lungs of bacterial type. If the temperature does not drop more than five days - this is a sign of pneumonia.
- Reduced immunity.
- Sinusitis.
- Otitis of acute form.
- False groats.
- Myositis.
- Meningitis.
- Exacerbation of chronic respiratory diseases.
Vaccination can be free, paid and passive immunization. Schools, kindergartens and a polyclinic purchase the vaccine at the expense of money allocated by the municipality. This vaccine is issued in Russia. Some employers also provide free vaccination. Fee paid for vaccination in private clinics, and the price depends on the drug and on the cost of the service itself.
Warning! Acquired vaccines against influenza should be stored according to the rules prescribed in the instructions, otherwise the drug will lose its valuable properties. It is strictly forbidden to vaccinate independently.
