    The flu jab is prevention, not vaccination.
    Flu vaccine is a vaccine which is used to vaccinate people and hopefully prevent them from catching flu. It really is that straightforward.

    my post is a follow-on to post #7 which in turn responds to post #5.
    To spell it out, yes of course vaccines can be either oral or injected, that is not in dispute. The point is that anti-malarials are neither vaccines nor injected.
    The questions that get the best answers are the questions that give most detail....
  • Just to say that I bought some malaria tablets from a reputable, British NHS supported, online company and paid a lot less as a result
