A. Influenza vaccine or the flu vaccine is basically a vaccine which protects against different strains of flu viruses including swine Flu virus which causes symptoms specially in children because of less immunity. Though it is not a mandatory vaccine but it should be given to every child to protect against different flu infection which is very common every year . this vaccine is given after 6 monthfrs of age and initially two doses are given one month apart then every year single dose is required .f It is not documented but still studies suggest that to some extent it may give partial protection against covid infection .

A. good morning flu vaccination is something which is given on a yearly basis to the child so I would recommend you to make sure that the child is well immunized against the common cold
