We are using Fluzone quad about 2000 - very few reactions - far less reactions than any other year.  I would look at lot numbers and see if there is a trend

I'm wondering if others are seeing an increase in localized reactions on employees from this year's flu vaccine.  We are seeing an increase especially in itching and swelling at the injection site.
Thanks.
