💉 Protect Yourself and Your Community This Flu Season! 🦠

Flu season is here, and getting your annual flu vaccine is one of the best ways to help protect yourself and those around you.

The flu vaccine can:
✅ Reduce your risk of getting sick with the flu
✅ Help prevent serious complications and hospitalization
✅ Help protect older adults, young children, and people with certain health conditions
✅ Reduce the spread of flu to family, friends, coworkers, and your community

Even if you’re healthy, you can still get the flu and pass it to others before you know you’re sick.

📅 Make your flu vaccine part of your yearly health routine! Talk with your pharmacist or healthcare provider about getting vaccinated and which flu vaccine is right for you.

💙 A small step can make a big difference in protecting our community.

📞 Contact the Pharmacy Outreach Program by calling toll-free 866-633-1617 to learn more about the different types of flu vaccines, side effects, or have questions about the cost.

Take a step toward a healthier flu season—get informed, get vaccinated, and stay protected!
