hi
BCG vaccin is alredy given to my son in my place(india).. here in us they did a ppd skin test and the result is positive(tb)
the question is due to bcg the result is positive?
YES, someone who has been vaccinated with the BCG vaccine WILL test posititive on a PPD skin test. When being given the PPD (tuberculin) test, you should advise the nurse that you have had the BCG vaccination.
