I thought she meant some special strains of flu, which are specific to countries like Canada. Like, when people are checked for vaccination against yellow fever when coming from certain African countries. Is it something like that?

Will simply getting normal flu vaccination help us against any flu strain? Do I have to tell my doctor that I am going to Canada, so he gives me some specific vaccine? That is basically what I am confused about.

Yes, I am from Karachi.

There is only one type of flu vaccine available worldwide. Every year a new vaccine is made based on previous years strain. You can go to any hospital and get it done, It may have different brand names but all of them contain the same vaccine.

Hello Amidala

Well you can call IOM's office on their UAN number and ask them for your tracking number. Tell them the date of your medicals and your passport number. You can of course then check the status on DHL's website.

But this is only to check whether your results have been delivered to the office in New Delhi.

Please tell me if IOM uses DHL or TCS for delivery of medical result and is the result send to New Dehli or London ?

Dear
did you recieve any intimation regarding medical line or any news from LVO after medical

No, not yet. I read somewhere that pre June 2010 applicants don't usually get their medical e-case status updated, however they receive PPR1 and then 2. .

Since I didn't attend the orientation so I don't know what exactly she meant. However, flu vaccination I am referring to is for everybody and boosts immunity against flu and its viral.

I am aware of that Since that is a requirement during the early stages of the immigration process actually what I meant was the accreditation needed for work n study in canada for example through World Education Services etc
