Posting here shamelessly for traffic.
I have been advised by a doctor that there is no medical risk in giving a flu jab to a baby under 1 (mine is 8 months). It is given to babies known to be in high risk groups, eg heart patients.
I want him to have the jab because it is beneficial to everyone but also because we have a family history of atopy.
I cannot even pay for him to have one at the surgery as they don't have enough stocks. Bizarrely, I am allowed a free one as a carer for my daughter, who is high risk.
Chemists will not vacinate children under 16.
Any tips? (I don't want tips like "I don't believe in vaccines" as I am strongly in favour - I mean tips like where to get one!)
