I usually wait until later in the fall to put out my annual flu vaccine reminder, but this is a much different season with COVID-19 still raging throughout the United States. Please, please, please, get your flu vaccine as soon as they are available this year. Although the flu vaccine will not help you with COVID-19, it will protect you from the seasonal flu, reducing your odds you will need to seek medical attention for the flu.
And when that COVID-19 vaccine comes out (fingers crossed), please do not delay and get this vaccine! Protect yourself and protect others through herd immunity. For more on the flu vaccine, here's my post from last year. I could share links to posts from all of the previous years too, but the information doesn't change. Even in a bad season when the flu vaccine is not as effective, it still provides some protection and can minimize how sick you get if you do catch it. The flu is no joking matter. Get that vaccine!!!
