Reduces the Risk of Getting the Flu:

The flu vaccine is updated annually to match the most common strains circulating. While no vaccine provides absolute protection, it significantly lowers the chance of getting the flu, offering a much lower risk of illness.

Prevents Severe Complications:

Flu can lead to severe complications, especially in vulnerable groups like the elderly, pregnant women, young children, and those with chronic conditions. These complications can include pneumonia, hospitalizations, or even death. Vaccination greatly reduces these risks.

Protects Vulnerable Individuals:

Getting vaccinated not only protects you but also helps protect others, especially those who are at higher risk or cannot be vaccinated, such as infants or people with weakened immune systems. This creates "herd immunity," reducing the virus's spread within the community.
