Flu spray and upcoming surgery

[Tangofantastic]

just wanting another opinion as I can massively overreact with health anxiety ☹️
my daughter is having surgery in a few weeks and needs to isolate for a week afterwards to avoid infection.
I am wondering if I should pay to have her get the flu spray prior to the operation? She’ll get it free in school but not till December, and I’m just thinking for the sake of £10 she could get it this week and have protection before the surgery?
or am I overreacting and she should just wait for December?

If you are in the UK you don't need to wait for school. Ring your GP practice and book to see the nurse. I had to take my 2 year old so I booked my other two to have it at the surgery and declined the one at the school.

How old is she? You can't buy the nasal flu spray but could buy the injection if she over 11. However just contact the GP and get it done by them asap.

She’s 7. I did try gp but they said it’s nothing to do with them, it is all organised by locality teams and I’d have to book in through them and they have
nothing until december time so would need to be a vaccine at pharmacy. I just can’t work out if that’s overkill on my
part Or not and if I should just wait until post surgery for her to have it at school with her peers 🤷‍♀️☹️
