A person may be exposed to a virus before getting vaccinated and it may introduce itself within that two week period that the flu vaccination begins to take effect. Also, it may be a non-flu virus such as rhinovirus. Always call your doctor to describe the symptoms. Check out the website for Centers for Disease and Prevention to help answer your questions.
