Annual influenza vaccination is recommended for persons 6 months of age and older. Some children will need 2 doses of influenza vaccine in the same season.  The following children will require 2 doses of influenza vaccine, administered at least 4 weeks apart, for the 2016–17 season:

• Children aged 6 months through 8 years who have never been vaccinated against influenza or for whom vaccination history is unknown
• Children aged 6 months through 8 years who have not received at least 2 doses of seasonal influenza vaccine (trivalent or quadrivalent) before July 1, 2016

The following children will require 1 dose of influenza vaccine for 2016–17:

• Children 6 months through 8 years who have received at least 2 doses of seasonal influenza vaccine (trivalent or quadrivalent) before July 1, 2016

  What is the correct dose (volume) of vaccine?

  The amount of inactivated (injectable) vaccine that should be administered intramuscularly is based on the age of the patient and the vaccine product you are using.
• For children 6–35 months of age, the correct dose is:
  • 0.25 mL for Fluzone Quadrivalent
  • 0.5 mL for FluLaval Quadrivalent
• For persons 3 years of age and older, the correct dose is 0.5 mL for all inactivated influenza vaccine products

Immigrants are at risk for any disease Americans are vaccinated for, including the flu. Immigrants children and the elderly are especially susceptible to disease and require vaccinations.

FOX News never worries about the environment. This is a sad reality, but, FOX is one of the most egregious offenders of environmental degradation in their reporting. Carlson is obviously using the environment as an excuse to hate migrants. It fits his purpose.

FOX News and right wing radio media like to call it infotainment, but, who are they entertaining?
