Spanish Forms
Influenza (aka the flu) is a seasonal illness caused by a virus and spread through sneezing, coughing — even breathing or hand-to-mouth contact after touching a surface with the virus on it. Flu symptoms include fever, sore throat, coughs, headache, chills, and muscle aches. Complications can range from ear and sinus infections to pneumonia and even death. Influenza is different from most other vaccine-preventable diseases because the viruses are always changing, meaning that immunity acquired one year may not protect against future influenza viruses. That’s why a yearly vaccine is recommended.
The vaccine: The flu shot contains inactivated influenza virus strains that have been determined to be the strains that will most likely cause influenza illness for that particular year.
The dose: One dose yearly is recommended for children beginning at six months of age. Children younger than nine years of age receiving the vaccine for the first time need two doses at least four weeks apart. Once your child is two years of age or older, he or she may be able to receive the LAIV influenza vaccine — however, any children who had wheezing in the past 12 months or who have underlying medical conditions such as asthma should not receive this vaccine.
