Growing public awareness regarding the dangers of influenza has created a great demand for flu shots. Each fall, millions of people across the nation get vaccinated as it's still the best way to stay protected from the flu.

  • All children aged 6 months to 18 years old
  • All persons aged 50 years and older
  • Children and adolescents receiving long-term aspirin therapy
  • Women who will be pregnant during the influenza season
  • Adults and children who have chronic pulmonary (including asthma), cardiovascular (excluding hypertension), renal, hepatic, metabolic (including diabetes mellitus) or hematological disorders
  • Adults and children who have immune deficiencies
  • Residents of nursing homes and other chronic-care facilities
  • Healthcare personnel
  • Healthy household contacts (including children) and caregivers of children aged less than 5 years and adults aged 50 years and older
  • Healthy household contacts (including children) and caregivers of persons with medical conditions that put them at higher risk for severe complications from influenza
