FAQ’S ABOUT FLU SHOTS

November 8, 2021

Flu is a contagious viral respiratory disease that can lead to several grim consequences for kids and the elderly though others are also at risk. But thanks to flu shots now you can stay safe from annoying flu and accompanying stumbling blocks. Yes! A vaccine for flu prevention is available and is recommended by healthcare professionals.

  • Children aged 6 months to 18 years.
  • People over 50 years of age
  • Those with chronic health issues
  • People with low immunity
  • Healthcare workers
  • Pregnant women

  • People having an allergy to egg protein should also avoid this vaccine and inform their doctor about it.
  • Those having Gillian-bare syndrome are advised to not have this vaccine.

How to flu shots work?
