For people who get flu jabs, it looks as if they provide more immunity if the jab is done in the morning rather than the afternoon.

Tests done show that for 2 of the 3 strains of flu used in the vaccine more antibodies were produced for people who had the jab between 9am to 11am compared to those between 1pm and 5pm. The other strain showed the same level of antibodies.

Must have had my jab in he afternoon then, as I got a heavy cold in November then again in December. By that time my body must have finally made enough antibodies 'cos I haven't been under the weather since.
