刚才去google了一下,以下转自Immunisation Advisory Centre NZ的网站。我的GP说的是对的,楼上妈妈的GP也没错。的确有两种疫苗。其中需要打两针的那种疫苗,打一针也是可以的。
Who can have the vaccine?
There are two brands of chicken pox vaccine available in New Zealand, Varilrix (GSK) and Varivax (MSD). The two vaccines are comparable in safety and effectiveness.
The manufacturer of Varilrix (GSK) have recently changed their dose recommendation for children aged 9 months up to 13 years. They now recommended two doses of Varilrix six weeks apart to provide optimal protection for this age group. This is a reasonable, however, New Zealand has a lot of circulating wild varicella virus, children are highly likely to receive boosts to their immunity from contact with wild disease, and a single dose of vaccine is likely to be effective. Where break through disease occurs, chicken pox in a previously vaccinated child, it is usually mild. Parents and caregivers should balance the potential benefit of a second chicken pox vaccination against the cost.
The advice for Varivax (MSD) remains the same. A single dose of Varivax is recommended for children aged 12 months up to 13 years.
For both Varilrix and Varivax, people 13 years of age and over require two doses of vaccine. Adults who are working with children and have never had chickenpox disease should consider vaccination.
The chicken pox vaccine is a prescription medicine. Discuss any further concerns/issues with your doctor, nurse or use the free phone number 0800 IMMUNE (0800466 863) to talk to an Immunisation Advisor. |
