EV71 Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease (HFMD) Vaccine
EV71 Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease (HFMD) Vaccine
Parents no longer need to worry about severe hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) infections. The EV71 HFMD vaccine offers protection against the Enterovirus 71 (EV71), a strain known to cause severe HFMD symptoms.
Severe Symptoms of EV71 Infection
EV71 can cause serious complications, potentially leading to death. Complications include:
- Neurological symptoms: Seizures, lethargy, vomiting, meningitis, encephalitis, paralysis, and acute muscle weakness
- Other complications: Myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle) and acute pulmonary edema (fluid accumulation in the lungs)
- Survivors of severe infections may develop long-term neurological issues.
Why the EV71 Vaccine is Important
HFMD is caused by enteroviruses, with EV71 being particularly dangerous. This virus affects children under 5 years old more severely than older children, with risks including brain inflammation and myocarditis, which can cause life-threatening complications.
- The virus spreads easily through contact with infected fluids, such as nasal discharge, saliva, or feces, especially among young children sharing toys or engaging in close contact.
- Parental vigilance alone is not enough. Vaccination provides essential protection for your child.
According to WHO, completing the 2-dose series of the EV71 vaccine provides up to 97.4% protection against EV71 infection in young children, significantly reducing the risk of severe HFMD.
