To give my 19 month old the Flu jab?

Just that really. What's the general consensus and any noticeable side effects after having it?

Isn't it 2+ and a nasal spray? I thought six months to two was only for children in at risk groups

I think you can pay privately for the jab version for children under 2 who aren't eligible on NHS. The jab isn't live unlike the nasal spray I believe, so there shouldn't be much in the way of side effects.

Boots, etc. often offer it and it's not that expensive.

Oh ok so do you think it's worth doing before they're 2 even if they're not in the at risk group?
