Does Everyone Need a Flu Vaccine?

​

• Children between the ages 6 months and 4 years 

• Adults over age 50

• Obese people 

• Women who are pregnant or who have recently given birth

• People with chronic conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, and pulmonary diseases, including asthma

• People who work in long-term care facilities such as nursing homes and rehabilitation centers
