Do you get your teens flu jabs?

Up until this year I’ve got flu jabs for my teens. They are now 16&19.

They don’t have any underlying issues, and touch wood, seem fit and healthy.

I’m just wondering if this is necessary? After the Covid jab farce I’m now a bit sceptical about all these injections.

It never even occurred to me tbh. DH's work pays for him, I get one privately because there's no way I could look after the DC if I had the flu. We never got the DC one but maybe we should consider it this year as they're at the stage where missing a chunk of school could set them back. Food for thought!

What do your DC think?
