JE vaccine is advised to children in endemic areas. So if you are there you can go for it. Flu vaccine 2-3 months before flu season that is about nov to feb cab be given. If your child have some kind of inmunodeficienct you should go for it .

JE VACCINE is given in endemic area. Flue vaccine doesn't cover every strain of Flue. JE is strongly recommended in endemic area, Flue vaccine is optional. Vaccination is preventive measure against the disease.
