It is recommended that everyone 6 months of age and older get vaccinated against the flu annually. Certain groups may be eligible for free vaccination. It is important to get vaccinated as early as possible, as the vaccine is effective for approximately 6 months. Taking preventive measures such as staying home at the first sign of flu, wearing a mask if you cough, avoiding touching your face and washing your hands often can help make the flu vaccine more effective.
