What is a Flu Shot?

A flu shot is a seasonal vaccine that protects you from influenza, a contagious respiratory illness that can cause mild to severe illness. The vaccine is updated yearly to target the most active strains.

The flu can lead to serious complications — even in healthy adults — and spreads quickly through workplaces, schools, and homes. Vaccination reduces your chances of illness and protects loved ones, especially infants, older adults, and those with chronic conditions.

  • Quick screening with a provider.
  • Simple injection in the upper arm.
  • Mild side effects like soreness are normal and short-lived.
  • Protection develops within two weeks.

Yes, millions of people get flu shots yearly with excellent safety records.

Yes, because immunity fades and strains change.

Everyone over 6 months old unless your doctor advises otherwise.
