VNA offers FluMist nasal spray flu vaccine to people ages 2 – 49 who are not pregnant and have no chronic health conditions.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and its Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommends annual influenza vaccination for everyone 6 months and older with any licensed age-appropriate influenza vaccine with no preference expressed for any one vaccine over another.

No, this is a myth. Flu vaccines cannot cause flu illness. The virus in the flu vaccine is inactivated (shot) or attenuated (nasal spray), and unable to cause infection. Vaccines stimulate the immune system to produce immune responses that protect against infection. Vaccines allow us to benefit from the natural immunity that comes with infection without having to suffer any severe or fatal consequences of actually getting a vaccine preventable disease.

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends all persons over the age of 6 months who can be vaccinated, should receive a flu vaccine each flu season.

There are 2 reasons:

  • Viruses change, so the flu vaccine from last season may not protect you this flu season.
  • The body's immunity to influenza declines over time.
