Flu Shots

It is important to take precautions to prevent the spread of influenza. Please take time to learn more about influenza from the CDC.

Getting a flu vaccination is again very important this year. It will help reduce the number of preventable hospitalizations related to flu. Influenza like illness levels are already high in the DC area as of mid September.

Getting a flu vaccine helps to protect individuals, their households, and their communities from the spread of seasonal flu. It is possible to contract both COVID-19 and influenza.
