The immunologist urged parents to observe the immunization calendar
One reason for the breakthrough in immunization coverage is the new trends in vaccine development and creation—the pressure to make them absolutely harmless and absolutely effective. The more harmless one vaccinethe less immunogenic and less active it is.
He explained this to BNR immunologistProf. Dr. Andrey Chorbanov, MP from ETC. He worked on vaccine for diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough at the beginning of his professional career.
Bacteriat, which at whooping coughand penetrates the body, begins to multiply and creates a large biomass in the respiratory tract. Babies are the most affected and vulnerable, because from whooping cough mostly small babies die, and mainly from suffocation, Chorbanov pointed out.
“It’s only at a later stage that it starts releasing the pertussis toxin.”
The thesis on the immunization of pregnant women immunologistcalled “free compositions”.
In the program “Horizon do Obed”, Prof. Chorbanov explained that in the past vaccineso against whooping cough was first developed first with a whole bacterial cell and then based on pertussis toxin and components of the cell.
Mass immunization against whooping cough in our country it started in the 1960s, only 1-2 years after the introduction of vaccineand in the West. Bulgaria has exceptional experience in the production of vaccines, especially bacterial vaccines, the specialist pointed out.
The reasons for the breakthrough at whooping coughand in our country there are more than those concerning herself vaccinenoted Prof. Chorbanov.
“At least I show a hundred families who refuse to vaccinate childrenyou are”he said, adding that this one vaccine is one of the most tested, the most tested, the most proven over the years. Immunologistthe called parentsthat they observe the immunization calendar, because “there are no improvisations in standard immunizations”.
Experience shows that such epidemics are local and cannot cover many people, emphasized the specialist.
“Immunity is not enhanced. It is what it is. If you have a 1 liter bottle and you put it under the tap, no matter how much water you put in it, it will collect 1 liter. People don’t need it, except with a proven immunity problem. The population as a whole has no need. What needs to be done is to take care of the little babies.”comments Prof. Dr. Andrey Chorbanov.
“Parentsthey bought everything at the pharmacies, but this one vaccine it is not intended for the elderly and can sometimes cause problems precisely because of it whooping coughcomponent”warned immunologistthe
Using the standard vaccine for diphtheria – tetanus – whooping coughand not the one for reimmunization: diphtheria – tetanus, the elderly take the risk of very severe side effects, Prof. Chorbanov explained.
