Although the flu vaccine does not cover all flu viruses and cannot 100% guarantee that the recipient will not be attacked by the flu virus, it can greatly reduce the probability of getting the flu, and even if you get the flu, it can relieve the symptoms.  It is important to note that the flu vaccine needs to be administered annually, usually between October and December of each year.  The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) released the “Recommendations for the Prevention and Control of Influenza in Children 2016~2017” on the point that the vaccine is still the most important way to prevent the occurrence of influenza, and people aged ≥ 6 months should receive the seasonal influenza vaccine every year.  2, improve the baby’s immunity Improving the baby’s own body immunity is an important measure to prevent influenza. Parents should dress their babies appropriately, according to the change of temperature, according to the difference between indoor and outdoor temperature, timely increase or decrease the baby’s clothing, do not wear too much, of course, can not wear too little, otherwise it will cause the baby’s resistance to decline. Usually also pay attention to take the baby to the appropriate amount of exercise Oh.  3, diet and nutrition should be balanced daily diet to avoid excessive intake of high-calorie, high-protein, high-sugar food, the baby’s intestinal tract is overburdened, will cause his resistance to decline.
