Flu Shots Are Safe

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), there’s no evidence that a flu vaccination increases your risk of getting sick from a coronavirus, like the one that causes COVID-19.  The CDC recommends getting vaccinated in September or October, but a flu shot anytime during the flu season can help protect you.

Now’s the time to get your flu shot

Now’s the time to get your flu shot. The flu shot is covered for people with Medicare from providers that accept Medicare or your Medicare plan. You can safely get a flu vaccine at your doctor’s office, pharmacy, or other local provider.
