Seasonal Flu Vaccine
Seasonal flu vaccine is available at all Salt Lake Valley Health Department clinics, excluding the West Jordan location.
Who Should Receive the Vaccine?
Pregnant women, young children, seniors and those with chronic medical conditions have always been strongly encouraged to get the vaccination as soon as the vaccine is available. However, this year the flu vaccine is being recommended for everyone over six months of age, by the United States Centers for Disease Control (CDC).
Common Questions
Will the seasonal influenza vaccine protect against H1N1/swine flu?
Yes, this year the antigens for the H1N1 vaccine have been included in the seasonal flu vaccines, by all manufacturers.
Why get the seasonal flu vaccine this year?
From data collected in the southern hemisphere, where flu season has already occcured, we know that H1N1 and the other two strains included in the seasonal flu vaccine will be active in the Northern Hemisphere this flu season.
Where can I get a seasonal flu vaccine?
Check the SLVHD "FluLocator" for locations of our clinics that will have the seasonal flu vaccine, as well as the cost of the vaccines. The FluLocator will be online as soon as we have the flu vaccines in our clinics.
