“Does pneumococcal injection have a fever?” This is a question many parents ask when deciding to vaccinate their children against pneumococcal disease. Similar to all other vaccines, after injection, children may have pain, swelling, redness at the injection site, fever of varying degrees, and in some cases anorexia. These symptoms can last about 1-2 days after the injection but are not dangerous to health, most of the symptoms will go away on their own, no treatment is required. In addition, the majority of children have no reaction after the injection. Therefore, families should not worry too much but ignore vaccination - the most effective active prevention method today.
