Infant-friendly flu vaccine developed with key protein. is it available in south africa?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unfriendly?: Flu vaccines are approved for certain age groups depending on the qualities of each vaccine and the research data presented to the governmental agencies, such as the FDA in the US. Wouldn't call any flu shots unfriendly to infants. Flu shots should be given to all eligible children ages 6 months and older. Guidelines may be different for different countries.
