A member asked:
My baby isn't up to date on vaccines, can she still get a flu shot?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: No problem getting the influenza vaccine (flu shot) after 6 months of age. If first timer, she will receive a 1/2 dose and repeat again 1 month later. You can still get the other catch up vaccines at the same time!
