When should I get vaccinated against flu? 

For most people who need only one dose of flu vaccine for the season, September and October are generally good times to be vaccinated against flu. Ideally, everyone should be vaccinated by the end of October. It takes about two weeks after vaccination for antibodies that protect against flu to develop in the body. 

If you are searching for a pharmacy to administer your Flu vaccine, you can use the provider locator on Vaccines.gov. 

We encourage families to check with their insurance provider regarding coverage for Flu vaccines.
