A. yes flu vaccine also known as influenza vaccine is very important for decreasing the chances of viral infection by at least 60% in your child. the first dosage is given at the end of 6 months and the second dosage at the end of 7 months and then every year till complextion of 7 years of age. previously it was an optional vaccine but now it is considered as an important vaccine for children. flu vaccine can be started at any age.

A. hello with just cold and cough it is usually fine to get the vaccination which is absolutely safe not a problem or you can even delay the vaccination by a week and then get the vaccination once the child is all fine also and both are absolutely safe not to worry about
