Can you give flu vaccine and pneumococcal together?

Yes, flu vaccine and pneumococcal vaccine can be given together.

The flu vaccine and pneumococcal vaccine are both important vaccines for protecting people from serious illnesses. The flu vaccine helps to protect against influenza, which is a contagious respiratory illness that can cause fever, cough, sore throat, muscle aches, and fatigue. The pneumococcal vaccine helps to protect against pneumococcal disease, which can cause pneumonia, meningitis, and sepsis.

Both vaccines are safe and effective, and there is no evidence that they interfere with each other. In fact, some studies have shown that giving the flu vaccine and pneumococcal vaccine together may actually provide better protection against both illnesses. Therefore, it is recommended that everyone over 6 months of age get both the flu vaccine and pneumococcal vaccine.
