Teenage- nasal flu spray /Covid vaccine gap - yes or no?

My DD had her nasal flu spray today and I have booked her Covid jab for Sunday. Should there be a gap/bigger gap? I have looked online to no avail. I asked her to ask the nurse but she forgot! Any ideas - thanks

It will be fine. I took my DS for his covid vaccine 1 week after his flu vaccine. The nurse said that they can even be given on the same day.

DH's Gran had her flu jab and Covid booster on consecutive days. MIL queried it with district nurse, GP and when she had the first vaccine and all said it was fine.

My son had both his minutes apart. I was surprised as I thought I’d read they should be spaced out. He was fine but achey/slightly fevery for a day or so.

My son's school were doing both at the same time. He only had the flu spray though as he'd had Covid in the previous 28 days so couldn't be vaccinated.
