Individuals

  • During the 2011-12 flu season, influenza vaccine is recommended for everyone over 6 months of age. The Flu Vaccine Finder will return for the 2011-12 flu season.
  • This year’s seasonal flu vaccine, available in injectable and nasal spray formulas, is widely available at pharmacies, doctors’ offices and local health departments across the state.
  • The vaccine includes protection against the H1N1 strain of the virus as well as two other anticipated flu strains. For most people, that means only one flu immunization is necessary.
  • As usual, children under 9 years of age who haven’t been vaccinated against the flu in the past will need two doses of flu vaccine.
