Depends — some vaccines are grown on egg or use gelatin as a stabiliser, but vegans are advised to take them.

Pourquoi

Certain flu vaccines are egg-grown and some use porcine gelatin. The Vegan Society's position is that vaccination is a case where avoidance is not practicable, and egg-free alternatives are available for some vaccines on request.

Que vérifier sur l'étiquette

  • Ask whether an egg-free or gelatin-free version is available
  • Vaccination protects others, including immunocompromised people
  • Public health guidance takes precedence

Questions fréquentes

Is Vaccines certified vegan?

Certification is separate from the recipe. Many products with no animal ingredients carry no vegan mark because the maker will not rule out shared production lines. Check the pack for a registered vegan trademark, and treat the ingredient list as the primary evidence.

Does the answer change between countries?

Often, yes. The same brand name can use different fats, emulsifiers, colours or whey depending on the plant that made it, so always read the local label rather than an answer written for another market.
