Seasonal Influenza Vaccine

The seasonal influenza vaccine is designed to protect against the common strains of the flu virus expected each year. It stimulates your immune system to recognize and fight the virus if you're exposed, reducing the risk of illness and complications. Typically administered via an injection, the vaccine is updated annually to match circulating strains. It’s especially recommended for vulnerable groups like the elderly, young children, and those with certain health conditions. While it doesn’t guarantee complete protection, the flu vaccine significantly lowers your chances of getting sick and helps lessen the severity if you do contract the flu.
