How do vaccinations work Why should children and adults be given vaccination?
Vaccinations work by strengthening one's immune system. Professional doctors, with a certificate, insert some of the virus or bacteria so your immune system can get immune to fight it off.

Otherwise healthy adults, teens and children over 10 only need a single vaccination for the flu to be fully protected. After about 2 weeks from the time of the vaccination you will be protected. Younger children need a series of two flu vaccinations, usually given a month apart. After around another 2 weeks from the time of the second vaccination, they are protected. Babies under 6 months old do not have immune systems mature enough to get vaccinated for the flu.

How quickly does regular flu shot work and is it too late to get one?
It takes about two weeks after the seasonal flu shot for the immunization to reach full protective ability in adults and children 10 and over. For the swine flu vaccination in 2009, they found a faster response time of approximately 8 - 10 days for adults. For children under 10, because of their immature immune systems, they need a series of two vaccinations. So they are not fully protected until approximately 3 weeks after the second vaccination. The first vaccination is given to them and then a wait of approximately a month is required before the second vaccination can be given, so a high side estimate for how fast children can achieve full immunization is 2 months. Infants under 6 months old are too young to receive flu vaccinations. Flu shots are still encouraged in the Northern Hemisphere as late as February, but the flu season can continue into March. Adults may choose to be safe instead of sorry and get the vaccination as late as March, but usually if you haven't had it by then, you won't have the time to have a full response to the vaccination before the typical flu season dwindles, but there is still some small amount of risk. October is the typical time each season for flu shots.
