Influenza is a contagious respiratory illness caused by viruses that affect your nose, throat, and lungs. For some people, flu symptoms may be severe, and can lead to hospitalization. Even if you are not at high risk for severe symptoms, the virus could spread to someone who is at high risk. By being immunized, you are helping protect yourself and your community
If you are immunocompromised, have an egg allergy, or have experienced an allergic reaction to the flu vaccine, please consult with your provider. Options may still be available for you!
If you have recently experienced COVID-19 or another acute illness, please defer your influenza vaccine until you have fully recovered. Additional details regarding COVID-19 vaccinations will be made available in the near future.
For additional information or questions, please visit with your primary care provider.
