The BCG vaccination programme in the UK is risk based and has usually been given to eligible babies soon after birth. On advice from the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation, NHS England and Improvement recently revised the timing of this vaccination to 28 days after birth or soon thereafter. In this article, we highlight the change in timing of vaccination, the rationale and barriers to BCG uptake that this change may pose.
英国的卡介苗（BCG）接种计划是基于风险的，通常在婴儿出生后不久就会给符合条件的婴儿接种。根据疫苗接种和免疫联合委员会、英格兰国民保健制度（NHS England）和改进组织的建议，最近修改了该疫苗的接种时间，改为出生后 28 天或之后尽快接种。在本文中，我们重点介绍了接种时间的变化、这种变化可能带来的 BCG 接种率提高的理由和障碍。
