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.
