This value set contains 4 concepts
Code | System | Display (en-US) | Definition |
immuno | http://nphcda.gov.ng/ig/immunization/CodeSystem/nigeria-immunization-contraindication | Immunocompromised | The individual has a weakened immune system due to a medical condition (e.g., cancer, organ transplant, or immunosuppressive therapy), which contraindicates certain live vaccines. |
severe-aefi | http://nphcda.gov.ng/ig/immunization/CodeSystem/nigeria-immunization-contraindication | severe AEFI | The individual is currently experiencing a severe febrile or respiratory illness (REFI), which may necessitate deferral of immunization until recovery. |
anaphylactic | http://nphcda.gov.ng/ig/immunization/CodeSystem/nigeria-immunization-contraindication | Anaphylactic reactions | The individual has a documented history of a severe allergic (anaphylactic) reaction to a previous dose of a vaccine or any of its components, making re-administration contraindicated. |

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:
Level | A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies |
System | The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere) |
Code | The code (used as the code in the resource instance) |
Display | The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application |
