Hello, I feel that what she is having is because of recurrent allergy and not an infection. Your pediatrician is appropriately treating your kid. Vaccines will prevent only bacterial pneumonia and invasive pneumococcal disease and the influenza vaccine will prevent against influenza virus and not allergies. I suggest you follow your Pediatricians advice. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
