For National Influenza Immunization Week, Dr. Sree Chaguturu, Senior Vice President, Chief Medical Officer for CVS Caremark, answers common questions about flu and the flu vaccine, including:
Why do I need a flu shot every year?
How effective is it at preventing or lessening the severity of illness?
Can I get a COVID-19 vaccine and flu vaccine at the same time?
CVS Health enables families to easily schedule their flu and COVID-19 vaccines together at CVS Pharmacy via CVS.com or through the CVS App. Patients may also schedule an immunization appointment with a MinuteClinic provider at Minuteclinic.com.
