About Getting a Flu Vaccine

  • The CDC recommends that everyone 6 months of age and older get a flu shot every year.
  • It is safe to get your flu shot and a COVID shot or booster at the same time or without regard to timing.
  • If you're pregnant, getting the flu vaccine helps protect your baby from flu infection for several months after birth, before your baby can be vaccinated.
  • While some people who get vaccinated can still get sick, flu vaccination helps protect against serious illness, hospitalization, and death.
