Flu vaccine yes or no?

[Onesecondofsummer]

My local surgery has just called and offered the nasal spray vaccine to DCs 6 and 3. I'm in two minds what to do. Both are generally very healthy children though DC 1 has had an on going cough/ cold which nurse said was a virus he needed to fight.
Is it worth having it done? Has anyone any experience of it?

jazz my father is also stubborn as a mule. It doesn't meant it's entirely his fault when I and my family kill him off by having the temerity to spend Christmas with him and give him flu.

Mine had it last year with no ill effects and they're having it this year as well. Fresh air, exercise and healthy diet and all the rest can make it easier for you to fight off illness, but it doesn't stop you from catching it.
