Count the topics that are more lively than the World Cup recently, and "Koshenzhen" is definitely one of them.
This Chinese company that produces vaccine has once again become the "target" of public sentiment. It is not only related to serious diseases such as lung nodules, diabetes , leukemia , but is even firmly bound to conspiracy theories such as "bribery" and "test seedlings". The relevant condemnations are getting more and more intense, and they also take the opportunity to be the first of the "Top Ten Online Rumors" of Weibo .
A large number of netizens on the Internet said that after receiving the Sinovac COVID-19 vaccine, they were diagnosed with lung nodules, which made many netizens feel panic. What is the truth?
First understand the efficacy and functions of Beijing Sinovac vaccine
Developing the Sinovac COVID-19 vaccine is to inhibit the infection of the new coronavirus in the body, which can prevent damage to various organs, and can also promote the growth of antibodies in the body, inhibit the reproduction rate of related viruses in the body.
It is very suitable for people working at high risk or medium- and low risk, and it can kill the new coronavirus.
further protects the body of vaccinated personnel and effectively reduces the chance of infection with the virus. The novel coronavirus vaccine developed by China Sinovac Biotech Corporation showed up to 97% effectiveness in early trials.
A large number of netizens said: After receiving the Sinovac vaccine, they were diagnosed with lung nodules? Are pulmonary nodules related to vaccines?
From the perspective of immuno principle, inactivated vaccine has no association with pulmonary nodules risk.
pulmonary nodules are diverse, mainly divided into nodules caused by pathogen infection such as viruses, bacteria, mycoplasma , fungi, and non-infectious nodules such as pneumoconiosis and tumor pulmonary nodules.
Sinovac COVID-19 vaccine is an inactivated vaccine and is a very mature vaccine technology route. During the preparation process, the virus has been treated to "death" and has lost its ability to reproduce and infect, and will not infect lung tissue to produce nodules. The launch of the Chinese vaccine for
has strict R&D and clinical trial procedures, and the safety is sufficiently guaranteed. The Sinovac COVID-19 vaccine has long been approved by the National Drug Administration and the World Health Organization and has been widely used at home and abroad, and has accumulated a lot of observation data.
pulmonary nodules risk has never been mentioned in vaccine-related adverse reaction events.
There are many reasons for the formation of lung nodules, and they are almost all inducible causes, and they need to be accumulated for a long time: for example, smoking for a long time, smoking second-hand smoke, smelling oil smoke for a long time, such as living in cities with poor air quality, or even living directly in industrial parks, such as home decoration with many sources of pollution, such as pharyngitis , bronchitis , such as frequent coughing, etc.
In the face of the rumors of "pulmonary nodules appear after receiving the Sinovac COVID-19 vaccine", there are also rational voices on the Internet that if the lung nodules are found after receiving the vaccine, it should be a coincidence. For example, there was already a lung nodule before receiving the vaccine, but it was not found. It happened to be found after receiving the vaccine;
The second situation is that the lung nodules appear after receiving the vaccine, but the cause of the disease is other factors and has nothing to do with the vaccine, so it is not necessary to associate the two together.
If you already suffer from lung nodules, can you get the new crown vaccine ?
can be vaccinated:
If the diameter of multiple nodules in both lungs is small, below 5mm, it is a chronic and stable lesion, and is judged to be benign nodules, you can get the new crown vaccine.
In addition, if the diameter of the nodules in both lungs is 5-10mm, but the patient does not have acute infection symptoms such as cough, sputum, fever, etc., and is in good spirits, he can also get the COVID-19 vaccine.
cannot be vaccinated:
If the nodule is 5-10mm in diameter and has symptoms of acute infection, it is not recommended to get the new crown vaccine. If you still insist on getting the new crown vaccine, adverse reactions similar to those of the acute infection may occur. The cause cannot be judged during treatment, which will delay the recovery of the disease.
If after dynamic observation, it is found that the nodule has become larger, tumorous lesions, or the diameter of the nodule is more than 1cm, which is a mixed ground glass nodule and a completely solid nodule. It is usually necessary to perform histological examinations on the nodule to confirm the nature of the nodule, and the vaccination of the new crown vaccine must also be postponed.
In general, the role of the vaccine is to enable most people to develop protective power and establish an immune barrier. Its effect in preventing severe diseases is more obvious. The current COVID-19 epidemic is still epidemic around the world and will continue for a relatively long time, and it will even coexist with us in the future.
must be vaccinated to allow more people to obtain immunity , and form a population immune barrier as soon as possible to effectively consolidate the hard-won epidemic prevention and control results. Vaccination with the new crown vaccine also has a good preventive effect on severe illness and death caused by the new crown virus infection.
