Now is the Time to Get Vaccinated Against the Flu
Read on for Information About the Seasonal Flu Vaccine:
- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that everyone 6 months of age and older should get a flu vaccine each year.
- Several flu vaccines are recommended for use during the 2020 - 2021 flu season.
- All vaccines will protect against both Type A strains of influenza (H1N1 and H3N2) and a Type B strain. Both trivalent (three component) and quadrivalent (four component) flu vaccines will be available during the 2020 - 2021 flu season. The quadrivalent vaccines will also protect against the additional Type B strain.
- Getting a flu vaccine will not make you sick, but you may have minor side effects that mirror flu symptoms, lasting one to two days.
- You should get the flu vaccine as soon as it is available in your area. However, if you haven't gotten vaccinated yet, it is not too late - influenza activity can continue even into May.
