A. important 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 completion of 7 years of age. previously it wasd an optional vaccine but now it is considered as an important vaccine for children. flu vaccine can be started at any age. best time for flu vaccine is usually just before rainy season on set

A. If your doctor Er service Centre it is not necessary vaccination because it is a flu related vaccination which is why it is not mandatory city is your choice if you want to get done you can get it done otherwise there is no compulsion that you have to get a bag new vaccination is mandatory for that matter it is a parents choice whether they want to go ahead with vaccination or not
