Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children1 Year agoA. 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 infechtion which is very common every year . this vaccine is given after 6 months of age and initially two doses are given one month apart then everyu year single dose is required .
It is not documented but still studies suggest that to some extent it may give partial protection against covid infection .
