Generally, this form of the vaccine is not recommended for adults over age 49. Experts have also warned against using this vaccine during the 2016-2017 flu seasons. Seniors are encouraged to get flu shots to get protected since the flu can quickly turn deadly for a senior. If your mother refuses to get vaccinated, make sure that she knows other flu prevention methods.
