Getting a flu vaccine will not protect against COVID-19, however, flu vaccination has many other important benefits. Flu vaccines have been shown to reduce the risk of flu illness, hospitalization, and death. Getting a flu vaccine this fall will help reduce your risk of flu, and also help conserve health care resources while our community works to lessen the impacts of COVID-19.
