A: per the Town of Franklin Health Dept "No they are not; they are: Fluzone High-Dose and Fluzone Standard-Dose (manufactured by Sanofi)."

A: per the Town of Franklin HEalth Dept: "attached is the latest Vaccine Information Sheet (VIS) related to the flu shot. We offer the Vaccine Information Sheet (VIS) every year at our flu clinics; it includes possible side effects.

Adverse reactions are harmful or dangerous responses that are typically unexpected, more severe and rare with the flu vaccine. 

Possible Side Effects After a Flu Shot

• Common: Soreness, redness, or swelling at the injection site; fever; muscle aches; or headache.
• Rare: There may be a very small increased risk of Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) after a flu shot.
• Severe allergic reaction: Seek emergency medical care if you experience hives, swelling of the face or throat, difficulty breathing, fast heartbeat, dizziness, or weakness. Call 9-1-1 immediately.

For other concerning symptoms, contact your healthcare provider.
