I was also thinking it may be due to the change in the A & B strain this year.

We are also giving Sanofi Fluzone Quad

 

Have seen increase of people reporting same reactions including swelling.  Those reactions we’ve seen are mild and one person who came on day two was already resolving.  Staff who get every year without reactions are surprised and think something is wrong.  Wondering if due to the A/Singapore & B/ Colorado strains this year.

We have given 3000 vaccinations and haven’t seen any local reactions. What manufacturer did you use?

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.
