The flu vaccine, specifically Fluzone, is designed to protect against the most common strains of influenza each season. Annual vaccination is essential as flu viruses change frequently. The Fluzone vaccine helps reduce the risk of flu, lowers the severity of symptoms if you do contract it, and minimizes the likelihood of complications. Protecting yourself with a flu vaccine each year helps reduce the spread of the virus within the community, particularly benefiting those who are more vulnerable, like young children, elderly adults, and people with chronic health conditions.
