Fill out the health screening questions the day of your vaccination:
Do I need a flu shot every year?
Yes, the CDC recommends that everyone 6 months and older receive a flu shot every year. People in high risk groups are particularly sensitive to severe illness, hospitalizations, and even death from influenza so it is very important that we all get vaccinated.
Will I get the flu from the flu shot?
No. The vaccine is created from inactive or dead viruses that won’t give you the flu.
Can I get the flu even though I got a flu shot?
Yes. The ability of the flu vaccine to protect a person depends on the age and health status of the person getting vaccinated, and the similarity or “match” between the virus strains in the vaccine and those circulating in the community.
What are common side effects from the flu shot?
You can expect soreness, redness, and/or swelling from the shot, headache, fever, nausea, and muscle aches. These symptoms should be mild and go away in 1-2 days.
For your safety, we will be screening you for
COVID-19 symptoms prior to your vaccination.
