A member asked:

1 year girl, got flu after influenza shot. she has cold, fever and nose runs for weeks. help?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Likely unrelated: Only the living nasal flu vaccine is capable of triggering some form of flu like symptoms.The shot is dead material that some can have a reaction to but not an infection.Fever lasting weeks is likely a more significant issue like an ear infection. She needs to see a health professional for proper diagnosis/treatment.
