Re: The Flu Vaccine Is Safe for People With an Egg Allergy
We continue to be told that the flu vaccine is perfectly safe for those with egg allergies, yet they must go to a medical facility to receive it. If it were just as safe my child could get the shot with me at CVS.

Re: The Flu Vaccine Is Safe for People With an Egg Allergy
@Deb Cip - the AAP, AAAAI and ACAAI have removed the increased precautions ( like vaccine testing, extra observation or being done in an allergist’s office). The CDC is has relaxed their recommendation to remove some extra precautions, but are still recommending a medical facility able to treat an allergic reaction. It's always best to discuss with your own doctor to get their recommendation based on your child's history.

Re: The Flu Vaccine Is Safe for People With an Egg Allergy
Kathy P. Thank you for taking the time to respond. I appreciate it. Again, common sense is simple. If we must go to a medical facility because there is a risk of allergic reaction for my child with egg allergies, there is still a risk posed to him that is not there for those of us without egg allergies. It really is very simple. I'm pro vaccine but this is clearly a push for everyone to receive the flu vaccination

The health organizations update their recommendations first based on current research, and the CDC follows within a year or two. All major allergy organizations and the American Academy of Pediatrics all agree...
