Final answer:

A family history of egg allergy is not a contraindication to immunization.

Step-by-step explanation:

A family history of egg allergy is not a contraindication to immunization.

According to a study published in The Journal of Pediatrics, increasing exposures to antibody-stimulating proteins and polysaccharides in vaccines is not associated with the risk of autism.

Therefore, individuals with a family history of egg allergy can still receive immunizations, as long as they are not allergic to any other components of the vaccine.
