Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy3 years agoA. 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 dosacge 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 5 years of age.
previously it was an optional vaccine but now it is considered as an important vaccine for children.

shilpi BhandariMom of 2 children3 years agoA. The flu vaccine is a good idea for all families. It does not cause the flu and it helps keep kids and parents from getting sick. Getting the flu is worse than having a cold and can make a person sick for a week or more.
Everyone 6 months of age and older should get vaccinated
