Those who should make flu shots a priority include: older adults (especially age 65 and up), young children, pregnant women, and people living with chronic conditions like asthma, diabetes, heart disease, or weakened immune systems. Getting vaccinated helps protect you and also the people who rely on you—your parents, kids, grandkids, and church family.

FAQS
Who should get a flu shot?
Flu doesn’t affect everyone the same way. Certain groups in our community are more likely to get seriously ill, land in the hospital, or face long‑term complications from the flu, which is why yearly flu vaccination is especially important for them.
Do I really need a flu shot?
Getting vaccinated helps to protect you and the people around you. In particular, infants, young children, older adults and people with certain chronic health conditions are at higher risk of severe flu complications.
Can the flu shot give me the flu?
No, the flu shot cannot give you the flu
. The vaccine is made from inactivated (killed) or weakened viruses that cannot cause infection. While mild side effects like low-grade fever, muscle aches, or soreness may occur, these are immune responses, not the flu itself.
How much does the flu shot cost?
Free with Insurance: Most insurance plans, including Medicare Part B, cover flu vaccines at no cost.
Cash Options: If paying out-of-pocket, prices if you’re uninsured or prefer to pay out-of-pocket the flu shots will be $22
Why is the flu shot different?
Flu viruses continuously change into new strains. If you've previously been exposed to the flu because you’ve had the disease or been vaccinated, your body has made antibodies to fight that particular virus strain. However, these antibodies may not be able to fight off new flu virus strains that may be different from what your immune system can protect against. Conversely, if a future virus strain is similar to past strains, your existing antibodies may help to prevent infection or to decrease its severity.
