Short Story about Flu Spray

Child flu vaccine: help beat flu with a wee scoosh
Given as a nasal (nose) spray, the flu vaccine is quick, easy and painless. All it takes is a wee scoosh up the nose.
Please remember to complete, sign and return your child’s consent form, even if you don’t want your child to get vaccinated.
The vaccine is given once a year. Flu viruses are constantly changing, so a different vaccine has to be made every year to ensure the best protection against flu.
