The earlier you get your flu shot, the better protected you’ll be when flu activity peaks. Since it takes about two weeks for your body to build full protection, getting vaccinated now gives you the strongest defense possible.
Your flu shot protects more than just you—it also helps shield loved ones and the most vulnerable in our community. The more people vaccinated early, the less flu spreads.
Don’t wait for the flu to hit. Schedule your flu shot today at Banner Urgent Care or with your primary care provider.
