Introduction |
This study explores the current vaccination practices of French general practitioners regarding children with egg allergy.

Among 93 general practitioners surveyed, the majority (88.9 %) considered egg allergy to be problematic in case of a vaccination. The three most problematic vaccines were those against influenza, yellow fever and measles, mumps and rubella.

Egg allergy may represent an obstacle to children vaccination. We submit recommendations for vaccination practices.
