Flu Vaccinations

Flu season is here and we've got you covered

It’s time to get your flu vaccine

Flu vaccines are always important, but they’re especially important this year to prevent overwhelming the local health care system even further as we confront both flu, COVID-19 and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) this fall and winter.

The flu — aka influenza — is a contagious respiratory virus that can cause mild to severe illness, and sometimes death. Hospitals treat thousands of people for serious flu complications every year. Those at especially high risk of hospitalization include:

  • Adults aged 65 and older
  • Children younger than 2 years old
  • Pregnant women
  • People with weakened immune systems
  • People with chronic conditions such as asthma, heart disease, lung disease, diabetes, obesity, and kidney or liver disorders
  • People who live in nursing homes or other long-term care facilities

For the 2024-2025 flu season, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) urges everyone to get a flu vaccine (except infants younger than 6 months old), preferably in September or October.
