Abstract
In egg-allergic individuals, vaccines measles-mumps-rubella (MMR), influenza, yellow fever, rabies and tick-borne encephalitis scare patients but also doctors who too often in this population indicates cons. Legal notices accompanying these vaccines reinforce the belief of doctors about the danger of these vaccines in egg-allergic patients. Yet allergic response to these vaccines are exceptional among egg-allergics. The few reactions are probably not related to egg-allergy. Current vaccines contain, for most, trace of egg protein or do not contain (MMR, Rabies). Since long it is shown that the ovalbumin content of most current vaccines do not trigger a reaction in allergy sufferers. Skin tests to vaccines, previously done, have not shown interest, for MMR and influenza vaccines. It persists only uncertainty for vaccination against yellow fever and tick-borne encephalitis. A change of legal notices for MMR and influenza is required. A campaign to inform doctors practicing vaccinations is urgently needed to avoid unnecessary health care costs.
