The flu vaccine is recommended starting at 6 months of age with two initial doses at 1-month intervals, followed by annual vaccination until age 5, and continues for individuals with asthma, immunocompromised conditions, chronic diseases, or those over 55 years old; while it does not prevent common colds caused by other viruses like adenovirus and rhinovirus, it effectively prevents serious flu-related complications including pneumonia, dehydration, and hospitalization.

Hello. Let's talk about flu vaccine today. So, when is flu vaccine recommended? The flu vaccination starts when the baby turns 6 months. Two doses are given at 1-month interval, and then the flu vaccine is given yearly till the baby turns 5.
After that, it is needed if the child has risk of asthma, immunocompromised state, any chronic disease. Then, after that, it's needed for patients who are more than 55 years of age.
Does the flu vaccine prevent you from the routine cough and cold?
It doesn't because it is for the influenza-associated flu. Common cold and cough is caused by the other viruses like adenovirus, rhinovirus, and many more for which we don't have any vaccine. But, taking a flu vaccine in the recommended age group prevents the risk of serious flu-like infections, pneumonia, dehydration, reduced hospitalization, and a better response to infection if it happens.
