Got both my kids, the older and the younger one, the flu shot. And wouldn't you know it, the younger one got a runny nose and a cough the very next day. Could the shot have caused this?

Your immunity might be a bit lower after the vaccination, so you could have caught something. Of course, maybe you caught it before the vaccination, went through the incubation period, and it just showed up now.

It won't provoke it, but if your body is weakened, a cold can easily catch on.

Of course not, there's no live virus in the vaccine. It doesn't protect against all viruses, and immunity develops over 3-4 weeks. You must have caught something somewhere else.

A virus can stay in a person's body for a week without showing any symptoms. Maybe the child was already starting to get sick, and the doctor didn't examine them properly before giving the shot, which then worsened their immune system.

Yes, you could, because the vaccine weakens your immunity in general, and you can catch anything.

The inactivated flu vaccine doesn't contain live virus, so it can't physiologically cause a runny nose or cough. Symptoms that appear a day later just mean your child was already in the incubation period for a cold before visiting the clinic.

My daughter was given hers a week ago, all good. My middle child got theirs yesterday, also all good. The oldest didn't get theirs in time. She's been home with a low-grade fever since Wednesday. This morning, it was gone.

No, the baby was already sick at the time of vaccination. He was in the incubation period.

It's not about provoking it, but rather weakening your body and making it easier to catch an illness.
