About Skin Tests for the vaccines of Measles, Measles & Rubella (MR), Mumps and Influenza

 

Because the vaccines of measles, MR, and mumps are made in chicken cell cultures, and the influenza vaccine is made using eggs, anyone who has had serious allergic reaction to eggs is recommended to have a skin test with a diluted vaccine before receiving the vaccine.
A skin test takes approximately 1 hour. For a reservation, contact us as early as possible on the day except Sunday.

i¦Serious allergic reaction develops within 30 minutes after eating raw eggs with the symptoms of skin rashes, pale, trouble breathing etc.j
