Influenza Vaccination at Home (Kuala Lumpur)

Recommended to be taken once every year to prevent influenza and its related complications.

Influenza Vaccination (Single Dose) 

Influenza (flu) is an illness that can potentially become serious and result in hospitalisation or other grave consequences. Each flu season is unpredictable, and flu affects people in different ways. Bacterial pneumonia, ear infections, sinus infections, and deterioration of chronic medical diseases such as congestive heart failure, asthma, or diabetes are all possible flu complications. 

The best approach to help guard against flu is to get a seasonal flu vaccine every year. The vaccine works by triggering the immune system of the body to produce antibodies that help our bodies fight infection. Vaccination has been demonstrated to decrease the occurrence of influenza infections and hospitalizations, among other things.
