In adults 65 years and older, an adjuvanted flu vaccine -- which contains a substance that enhances the vaccine’s effectiveness -- given at the same time as a shingles vaccine had no additional side effects compared to a high-dose flu vaccine given with a shingles vaccine. A Duke Health-led study supports the option of providing the shingles vaccine and adjuvanted flu vaccine to older adults at the same time when both vaccines are needed. People 65 years and older and people with certain chronic diseases are at higher risk of severe flu complications. Everyone  6  months  and older can help fight flu by getting vaccinated.

This is a myth! 😲 👉 Not all vaccines are 'painless'. This term primarily refers to the DPT vaccine, given at 6, 10, and 14 weeks of age, plus two booster doses. 🔍 Currently, two forms of the Pertussis vaccine are available: - Whole-cell Pertussis - Acellular Pertussis 💡 Whole-cell Pertussis vaccines can cause fever, pain, and swelling at the injection site for 2-3 days post-vaccination. This variant is available under the national immunisation schedule in government hospitals. ⚖️ Both variants have similar efficacy.

During the pandemic, we faced extraordinarily challenging times, yet we emerged into the light at the the end of the tunnel, largely due to #covidvaccines. The virus claimed the lives of millions of people, a devastating outcome we don’t want to repeat. Even today, an alarming number of people continue to be hospitalised and lose their lives to COVID-19, despite the availability of effective preventive measures like vaccines. It is so important that we view vaccination as a tool to avert severe or long term consequences like #longcovid, but also as a vital means to maintain a #healthylifestyle. #vaccinessavelives
