According to the results that flow from that article and reduce the risk of influenza in the small 41%, also decreased by 39% the odds of having respiratory illness that carries a possible hospital admission.
As explained by experts from the School of Public Health Johns Hopkins Bloomberg (in Baltimore, USA), the smaller are more likely to suffer complications from influenza virus (responsible for the flu).

Flu shot protects at pregnant and their babies
However, the authors of the investigation, "not vaccinated until six months, since influenza is more common in the second half after birth bout the flue shot.." Do not forget, they add that "at this time of year the rates of morbidity and mortality among infants who fail to six months of life were more frequent than those who exceed this age."
In order to assess the effect of vaccination of a pregnant woman about her baby, a group of scientists, led by Angelia Eick, worked with 1,169 females belonging to the reservation Apaches and Navajos, and that in this population, "the rate of respiratory infections in infants is particularly high. "

After conducting several surveys and analyzing blood samples (to measure the level of antibodies produced by the body against the aggressor), the researchers found that 17% (193) of small was hospitalized for influenza, 36% ( 412) went to medical consultation for respiratory problems and 48% (555) had no such episodes about the flue shot..
