whether or not you should get the flu shot when you are sick depends in part on how severe your illness is. if you are sick with a fever when you go to get your flu shot you should talk to your doctor or nurse about getting your shot at a later date. however you can get a flu shot at the same time you have a respiratory illness without fever or if you have another mild illness. if you have questions speak with your doctor.
