• Everyone 6 months and older should have a flu shot every year and vaccinated for COVID-19.
• Everyone aged 5 years and older should get 1 dose of an updated COVID-19 vaccine to protect against serious illness from COVID-19. None of the updated 2023-2024 COVID-19 vaccines is preferred over another.
