#Asktheexpert We went to the local pediatrician for flu vaccination for my two years old boy. But they vaccinated him with 6 months expired vaccine. We noticed it later. That pediatrician said they are sorry but the expired vaccine is not harmful at all. They told they will vaccinated him after 15 days again. Now as a parent I can't fully satisfied with this pediatrician... is it really the expired vaccine couldn't harm my baby?
