  • How the flu vaccine is developed
  • Types of flu vaccine available:
    • Trivalent (H1N1, H3N2, Influenza B) and Quadrivalent (H1N1, H3N2, and two components of Influenza B)
  • CDC does not recommend one flu vaccine over the other
  • The most important takeaway is to make sure to receive the vaccination. It does not make you sick, and is the #1 way to get through the flu season safely!

Stop by the pharmacy any time we are open and ask for your flu vaccination. No appointment is ever necessary!
