Get up to date on your vaccines
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), everyone 6 months and older should get a flu vaccine, with rare exceptions. Depending on your age and health, you may also need a COVID-19 booster or other immunizations, including ones for RSV and pneumococcal infections like pneumonia. These vaccines may currently be available at your local pharmacy, a nearby Banner Urgent Care location or by contacting your doctor.
