Around 2.5 million people received this vaccine last year rather than the conventional jab, and it appears to have no serious risks as some believed. This may lead to the flu vaccine simply being squirted up your nose rather then a shot, which would probably help a lot of people get around their fear of needles and get the shot.

 

Good news.

i would prefer the needle. i don't mind getting a jab but i got a thing about things other than my own fingers going up my nose. i also hate eyedrops.
