Abstract
in English, French
Administration of inactivated trivalent or quadrivalent influenza vaccines is now believed to be safe for individuals with egg allergy. Unless children have experienced an anaphylactic reaction to a previous dose of influenza vaccine, they can and should be immunized with a full dose of trivalent or quadrivalent inactivated vaccine.
