My 3 yo child had his flu shot a month ago this year. its not his first time getting a flu shot, he had received it in the past as well. his daycare wants me to find out if he needs a second dose. would he?

If he previously received two doses, he needs one dose this season. The flu vaccine is important in the prevention of influenza and is recommended if there are no contraindications. Please discuss a COVID-19 vaccine for caregivers and parents.
