There are few vaccine contraindications in individuals with food allergies
Individuals with an egg allergy can have the MMR in primary care
Vaccines containing significant quantities of egg are those prepared on embryonated chicken eggs (influenza, yellow fever and rabies)
Appropriate risk analyses should be undertaken in those individuals with gelatin or latex allergies and in those individuals who have previously experienced an immediate hypersensitivity reaction to a specific vaccine.
The vast majority of individuals with food allergies can safely have their vaccinations in primary care.
