Flu Shot Frequently Asked Questions

  • The vaccine provides protection about 2 weeks after you receive it. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends getting vaccinated each flu season as soon as you can.
  • The CDC recommends a seasonal influenza vaccination every year for everyone 6 months and older.

  • You might have some minor side effects after getting a flu shot, with symptoms including but not limited to:

    • Soreness, redness or swelling of the skin where you got the shot.
    • Low–grade fever.
    • Body aches.

    If you feel any of these side effects, don't worry. You should feel better within 1 to 2 days. If not, please report any side effects to your pharmacist or MinuteClinic provider.

  • Yes. We have taken steps to ensure that our colleagues and all our customers, including seniors, feel safe during immunizations. That's why we have reduced the number of touchpoints in the process and implemented new guidelines in accordance with the CDC. For example, patients will be given a COVID-19 screening questionnaire and have their temperature taken prior to any immunization. They must also wear a face covering or mask (one will be provided, if needed). The pharmacist or MinuteClinic provider administering the immunization will be given special personal protection equipment (PPE), including a plastic face shield. A designated space was created for immunizations that will allow for adequate physical distancing and the immunization area will be sanitized between patients.
