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 cotmmon every year . this vaccine is given after 6 months of auge and initially two doses are given one month apart then every year single dose is required . It is not documented but still studies suggest thagt to some extent it may give partial protection against covid infection .

A. It is going to be good only because you know swine flu is quite a scary kind of a thing so I would advise you to get it done from a private hospital there is no problem with that mostly I would agree with you that government is covering all the important vaccination but swine flu I believe is going to be important for the child so you should get it done
