The right answer is C.

There is a much higher risk of severe complications from influenza than of vaccine-related adverse events.

Of these adverse effects, the most common (for 10-40% of people vaccinated) is redness or pain at the injection site. Other symptoms can also be observed in 5 to 10% of the vaccinated: fever, muscular pain or slight nausea.

These reactions are benign and disappear at the latest after a few days.
