Influenza virus is remarkably unpredictable in that significant antigenic changes may occur from time to time. It is known that VAXIGRIP TETRA as constituted per annual seasonal composition, is not effective against all possible strains of influenza virus.

From what I have read, there is no one vaccine that is purported to be fully effective against all strains. The problem is with the ever evolving strains.

Saw how a close relative suffered from influenza b. Certainly seem to be far worse than c19. Was made to understand c19 was undermine by the vaccination. Hence now considering getting the influenza vaccination.

Checked with my family clinic and was told RM70 per jab and will last up till 12mths. It is the vaxigrip tetra from sanofi, France. Anyone has taken this jab? Same vaccine?

Has been taking Sanofi’s vaccine for the last 8 years. Missed a jab last year and will be taking soon. RM70 is good price, may I know where?

Control your body cholesterol and glucose level so that your body have less inflammation..

Those with inherent body inflammation will suffer very badly as the lymph node is jammed up and hard to flush out those lymph fluid..

Its not really the money. With this vaccination, the body will become depedent on it. Just picturing a year missed the vaccine then touch wood kena, may likely be worse hit compared to no vaccine?

U confuse between vaccines and antibiotics?

very honestly speaking, the normal flu, fever, cough also very2 less happened to me in the last 8 years, maybe once or twice during this period.

You still didn't share where is the RM70? My last costed slightly more, therefore RM70 is good price.

I take the flu jab every year around September. Last year it was priced at RM75. This year price increased to RM79.
