Frequently Asked Questions

We’ve answered some common questions to help you gain a better understanding of our flu vaccination service, how it works, and what you can expect.

Where can I get a flu vaccination in Dubai?
You can receive your flu shot at Smart Salem’s DHA-approved centres in City Walk, DIFC, and Dubai Knowledge Park, with valet parking and digital registration.
Can the flu vaccine cause the flu?
No, the flu vaccine cannot give you the flu. It contains an inactivated virus or parts of the virus that trigger an immune response without causing illness.
How long does the flu vaccine take to work?
It takes around two weeks for antibodies to develop and provide full protection against the flu.
How long does protection from the flu vaccine last?
Protection from the flu vaccine lasts for about six months. Because flu strains change annually, it's important to get vaccinated each year to stay protected against the most current strain.
Are there any reasons I might not be able to take the flu vaccine or things I should avoid beforehand?
You can usually receive the flu vaccine without needing to avoid anything specific. However, if you have a severe allergy to any vaccine ingredients, a history of Guillain-Barré Syndrome, or if you're currently unwell with a fever, it's important to consult with us first to ensure you're fit for vaccination.

Yes! We offer both online booking and walk-in flu vaccinations at our Dubai centers, so you can protect yourself conveniently whenever it suits your schedule.
