CERTIFICATE ON BCG VACCINATION

Applicant ________________________________________________________________

Since 1941 BCG vaccination has been included in the national vaccination program in Finland until September 2006 and thereafter for certain risk groups. The majority of children born before September 2006 have received BCG vaccination at birth or soon thereafter.

BCG vaccination does not alter the result of IGRA (B -LyTbIFN) test. BCG vaccination may cause false positive reaction in the intradermal Mantoux tuberculin test.

Yours sincerely,
