Leaves are falling, flu season is calling.
As we transition from summer to fall, we anticipate the perks this new season brings–crisp morning air, vibrant trees, and pumpkin spice everything. We also begin to think about and prepare for the seasonal flu.
Vaccination is the best way to reduce your risk from seasonal flu and its potentially serious complications. Everyone 6 months and older should get a flu vaccine every with rare exceptions. By getting your annual flu vaccine, you also protect your loved ones, coworkers, community, and people at higher risk of developing flu-related complications.
There are many vaccine options to choose from. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention does not recommend any one flu vaccine over another. The most important thing is to get a flu vaccine every year. If you have questions about which flu vaccine to get, please talk to your healthcare provider. More information is available at Who Should Get Vaccinated.
