Flu vax and transmission?

[maxwill129]

Does the flu shot prevent transmission? Just curious...and I can't find any of my vax research since I kind of stopped researching once we decided we weren't vaxing.

well, I'm not entirely sure what you are asking. If you got the inactivated flu shot and it 'worked', its unlikely you would pass on the strains included in the vaccine. However, according to the insert, the flu mist can shed for 10-14 days, so most definitely, it could be transmitted during that time.
