What to pay attention to after BCG vaccination
BCG is a kind of vaccine for preventing tuberculosis of infants and young children. Our National Ministry of Health stipulates that all newborn babies can be vaccinated free of charge. Because each child has a different body constitution, different bodies will appear after vaccination. In response, moms should take care of them during this period.
