Recently, the Shaanxi Provincial Health Commission issued the "Notice on Providing Vaccination Services During the COVID-19 Epidemic," requiring all localities to carefully analyze and evaluate and scientifically arrange vaccinations. So what specific precautions should be taken during the vaccination process?

Parents should take the initiative to report the health status and related information of the vaccinated children and accompanying persons according to the requirements of the vaccination clinic staff. After the appointment is successful, parents must take their children to the vaccination clinic in strict accordance with the appointment date and time period to reduce the chance of contact with other people.

If the vaccinated child or accompanying parents have symptoms such as fever, do not go to the vaccination clinic for the time being, and call or Other communication methods inform the vaccination clinic to cancel the appointment.
4. On the way to and from the vaccination clinic and during the vaccination clinic, the recipients and accompanying persons must wear masks at all times (babies do not need to wear masks to avoid suffocation ). If possible, try not to use public transportation to and from vaccination clinics.
