Flu shots are effective—and convenient.

Getting a flu shot each year is one of the simplest ways to protect your health and the health of those around you. The vaccine lowers your risk of getting sick, and if you do catch the flu, it helps reduce the severity and length of your illness. That means fewer missed days of work, school, and family activities—and less risk of passing the flu to young children, older adults, or anyone with weakened immunity.

At Alomere Health, we make it easy to fit a flu shot into your schedule with convenient appointment times that take only minutes. And unlike getting a shot at a retail pharmacy, your vaccination at Alomere is recorded in your full medical record—giving your care team the complete picture of your health. It’s quick, easy, and an important step in staying healthy this season.

A CDC-coauthored study in Clinical Infectious Diseases found that, during the 2022–2023 flu season, vaccinated adults were 47% less likely to be hospitalized from flu if aged 18–64, and 28% less likely if aged 65 and older. For children, flu shots cut urgent care and hospitalization rates by nearly half—highlighting major protection for young immune systems.
