Flu shots are recommended as soon as they become available so as to avoid missing an opportunity to get vaccinated. However, because of the likelihood of diminished protection against flu later in the season, especially for older people, patients should consider getting vaccinated in September and October.† As long as flu viruses are circulating, flu vaccination should continue, even during the month of January or later. The CDC Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) will be providing updated recommendations regarding influenza, including ideal timing for patients to receive flu vaccinations for the upcoming flu season.

The CDC recommends that everyone who is six months and older get a flu vaccine every year. State, age and health restrictions may apply. Anyone who has concerns about getting a flu shot should talk to their pharmacist or healthcare provider.

Recommendations for those >65 years of age: The CDC & ACIP recommend that adults aged ≥65 years receive one of the following influenza vaccines: Fluzone HD, FLUBLOK or FLUAD. These vaccinations are known to help boost the immunity in adults of this age group. If none of these three vaccines is available at an opportunity for vaccine administration, then any other age-appropriate influenza vaccine should be used.
