Who needs a flu shot?
While the CDC recommends getting an annual flu vaccination for individuals 6 months of age and older, certain groups are at a higher risk of developing serious complications from the flu. These include:
- Adults 65 years +
- Children under 5 years old
- Pregnant women
- People with chronic health conditions such as heart disease, lung disease, diabetes, or weakened immune systems
- Healthcare workers
- People who live in nursing homes or long-term care facilities
Why is a flu shot so important?
The flu, or influenza, is a highly contagious respiratory illness that can cause serious health problems, especially in high-risk groups like the elderly, young children, pregnant women, and people with underlying health conditions. While a flu shot doesn’t guarantee complete protection, it significantly reduces your risk of getting sick or experiencing severe complications.
Here’s why you need it:
- Protection against severe illness: Every year, Flu vaccinations prevent illnesses, medical visits, hospitalization and even death especially those with heart disease.
- Reduced transmission: By getting vaccinated, you help protect others in your community, especially those who have chronic conditions.
- A 2017 study showed that flu vaccine can be life-saving in children.
- Flu shots are safe and recommended by every doctor.
