Infleunza immunization starts at the age of 50.Not 55 or 60(according to Kaplan books).So the answer should have been B plus or minus A.

Ya asmi.I suscribed today and did 250 Qs.Very good source. I also encountered the above Q.But not convinced with their explanation.At least the past immunization history should have been mentioned to let us know that he was not already vaccinated for Td. Good luck asmi.Dont forget to share us your experiance on the exam day.
