Influenza Vaccine in Melaka
Influenza Vaccine
The flu can strike at any time, causing fever, body aches, fatigue, and serious complications for high-risk individuals. The best way to protect yourself and those around you is by getting a flu shot. At Klinik Liysha, we offer safe and effective flu vaccinations to help you stay healthy throughout the year.
Why Get a Flu Shot?
The flu shot is a simple and effective way to reduce your risk of influenza infection. It works by stimulating your immune system to recognize and fight flu viruses before they make you sick. Even if you do catch the flu, being vaccinated can reduce the severity of symptoms and lower the chances of hospitalization.
The flu vaccine is scientifically tested and approved by global health authorities, including the World Health Organization (WHO) and Malaysian Ministry of Health (KKM). It cannot give you the flu, as it contains inactivated or weakened virus components.
Benefits of a Flu Shot
- Reduces the risk of flu-related complications
- Protects vulnerable groups like children, elderly individuals, and those with chronic conditions
- Helps prevent the spread of flu in families and workplaces
- Minimizes missed work or school days due to illness
- Safe and well-tested with minimal side effects
Who Should Get a Flu Shot?
The influenza vaccine is recommended for everyone aged six months and older, especially those at higher risk of complications, including:
Pregnant women
Young children under five years old
Elderly individuals above 65 years old
People with chronic conditions such as asthma, diabetes, or heart disease
Healthcare workers and individuals in public-facing jobs
When Is the Best Time to Get Vaccinated?
Flu season in Malaysia typically peaks between May to September and November to March, but cases can occur year-round. The best time to get vaccinated is before flu season starts, as it takes about two weeks for the vaccine to build immunity.
