Influenza vaccination is more important than ever this year
Dr. Chris Burnett
The flu season is here. Also, COVID-19 is likely to be still prevalent this fall, so two pandemics can occur at the same time.
This is a dangerous potential that we want to avoid so that we can maintain adequate medical resources for all patients. That’s why it’s imperative that you and your family be vaccinated against the flu this year.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends influenza vaccination for all people over 6 months, with rare exceptions. This year’s flu shot is especially important in the following ways:
• Essential worker. This includes healthcare professionals and other people who generally provide the services needed during a pandemic.
• People at high risk of serious illness due to COVID-19. This includes the elderly and people with certain underlying illnesses.
• People at high risk of influenza complications. This includes infants, pregnant women, people over the age of 65, and people with chronic illnesses.
Influenza and COVID-19 share some symptoms, but they are caused by different viruses. Therefore, influenza vaccination does not protect you from COVID-19. Still, it helps protect you from the flu, or from serious illness if you get the flu.
Is it too late to get a flu shot?
Ideally, you should be vaccinated against the flu in September or October, but it is not too late to get a flu shot right away before the flu begins to spread. Influenza activity usually peaks between December and February, but can continue until May. Therefore, even if you take the shot now, you may still get some protection.
Do I need to be vaccinated against influenza if I have COVID-19?
No. You have to wait for the flu shot until you feel better and your doctor says it’s safe to go out.
Where can I get a flu shot?
You can make an appointment with your GP to get a flu shot. Shannon Pharmacy also offers influenza vaccinations to the public. For more information, you can call them at 325-655-8191.
