Reasons to get a flu shot
The flu can be serious
An average of 2,800 Australians die from influenza and pneumonia every year. Some people are at greater risk of influenza complications. If you come into contact with infants, pregnant women, older people or immune-compromised people while you have flu you are putting them at risk.
Help protect the rest of the community
When you protect yourself from the flu through vaccination, you’re also protecting those who can’t get vaccinated from catching the flu. This includes those who are too young to get vaccinated.
You will not get the flu from the flu shot
It is not possible to get the flu from getting the flu shot. The vaccine does not contain any active virus.
You need a flu shot every year
Having an influenza vaccine every year in Autumn is recommended, particularly for those in the high risk groups. Protection develops about two weeks after being given the injection and lasts up to a year, which makes it important to be vaccinated every year.
