Influvac Injection 1

Influvac Injection protects you against influenza (flu). It works by exposing you to a little dosage of the flu virus, which aids in the development of immunity against the sickness in your body. A flu virus infection that has already developed will not be treated by vaccination. A doctor or nurse administers the Influvac Injection as an injection into a muscle. It's commonly administered right before the cold season starts, when the flu virus is at its increase. A single injection is usually enough to protect you for a year. Because new strains of the flu virus appear periodically and new vaccinations are discovered, you should get vaccinated every year. If you're over the age of 65 or have a chronic health condition like diabetes, heart failure, kidney failure, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, you should get this vaccine (COPD). It's also safe for babies and toddlers over the age of six months.
