The funded flu vaccine for children and adults (6 months of age and over) available in Aotearoa New Zealand is called Influvac Tetra.
When the flu vaccine is given:
The flu vaccine is available from 1 April each year, before winter starts. We recommend everyone over 6 months old gets immunised against flu every year.
If you have a child under 9 years old, talk to your vaccinator about whether they may need 1 or 2 vaccinations (4 weeks apart) depending on if they’ve had a flu vaccine before.
Side effects and reactions:
Like most medicines, vaccines can sometimes cause reactions. These are usually mild, and not everyone will get them.
Mild reactions are normal and shows that your immune system is responding to the vaccine.
If you’re going to have any reactions, they normally happen in the first few days after getting vaccinated. The vaccine itself is gone from your body within a few hours or days.
The most common reaction to an immunisation includes:
a slight fever
pain or swelling where the needle went in.
Other common side effects of the flu vaccine include:
crying, being upset, and hard to settle (in babies and toddlers)
loss of appetite
aches and pains
headache
Serious side effects are rare. If you have any questions or concerns, talk to your doctor or nurse, or call Healthline for free on 0800 611 116.
