What else can I help you with?
Why is it recommended not to get a flu shot when there's a high fever?
the shot is to prevent infection not to treat it When you're sick with a fever, you may not mount as good of an immune response to the vaccine.
Can you take an antibotic and get a pneumonia shot at the same time?
No, if you are sick you should not get a vaccine at the same time. Wait at least a week after you finish the antibiotics so your immune system is well enough for the vaccine.
Does it do any good to take a vaccine once you are sick with the disease the vaccine is supposed to fight?
No, it doesn't, because the vaccine 'primes' the system for the virus. It won't help once you're already sick.
Are you contagious after pneumonia vaccination?
A vaccine STOPS you catching diseases and therefore being contagious. There is nothing in you that other people can catch!
Is there a vaccine for the mumps?
There is, it is called mmr. It is for Measles, Mumps, and Rubella
How many flu shots do you get if you're sick?
None. If you are already sick with the flu, a flu shot for that type of flu will not help you. It is a vaccine to preventthe specific viral infection, not a cure or treatment.However, since the seasonal flu vaccination in the US is trivalent (contains vaccine for 3 different types of flu), it is still good to get the vaccination even if you have already become sick with one of the types of flu in the vaccine, you still need the vaccine to prevent the other two types. And the type you have may not even be one of the three in the vaccine at all.You can get the vaccination as long as you do not have a fever. But waiting until you are completely over the current infection is a good idea, so you can rest in bed to get over the infection as quickly as possible, and so you don't pass it on to someone else while you are out in public.
Can a rabies shot make a kitten sick?
A double dose of any dead vaccine should not harm a cat. Many cats in rescue organizations are sometimes vaccinated due to an unknown past and there are no ill effects.
What you might get at at the doctors office?
At the doctor's office, one might expect to get a prescription, a shot, a vaccine, sound medical advice, or an examination of some sort. If you're sitting in the waiting room close to some sick people, you might be unlucky enough to get sick yourself!
Why would you have to get the H1N1 shot?
Hey there fellow user! Firstly, it is called the flu shot which contains the 3-4 flu virus strains predicted by scientists every year all over the world. And of course, the H1N1 2009 pandemic strain will always be in that cocktail. There are MANY flu virus strains that are currently circulating, and the vaccine sometimes prevents you from getting sick. On the other hand, you might manage to get a little sick from the other strains which are not present in the vaccine to give you immunity. Predictions can sometimes go wrong so that's how the flu vaccine can occasionally fail. On the bright side, you are resistant to those strains you got vaccinated against which is not a waste at all so don't skip them! But, you must take precautions like handwashing, wearing a mask when sick or if someone who you know is sick, and cleaning surfaces touched by a sick person during flu season. And if you are sick, stay at home till you fully recover so you don't make others sick. This may seem pretty long, but I hope you are happy with this response! 😄

Have pregnant women died from H1N1 shot?
The shots haven't been distributed yet but the shot itself wont make you sick unless you already have the flu. Then the flu itself can harm you of course. But considering H1N1 is 4 times as contagious as the regular flu there's a bigger chance you'll get it then that you'll get it from the vaccine. Just don't get it when you feel sick. Speak to your doctor if you feel unsure.
