Flu Shot FAQs

 

 

The flu shot is a vaccine that helps your body build immunity against the most common influenza viruses expected during the 2025–26 season. It does not contain live virus and cannot give you the flu.

The CDC recommends flu vaccination for everyone 6 months and older, especially:

  • Adults 65+
  • Children under 5
  • Pregnant individuals
  • People with chronic health conditions

The best time to get vaccinated is early fall, ideally before the end of October. However, flu shots are still beneficial later in the season.

Yes. Flu vaccines are thoroughly tested and monitored for safety. Side effects are usually mild and may include soreness at the injection site or a low-grade fever.

No. The flu shot uses inactivated virus or a single viral protein, so it cannot cause the flu.

Most insurance plans cover the flu shot at no cost. Kinney Drugs accepts most major insurance providers. Check with your local store for details.

Yes! You can often receive other vaccines—like COVID-19 boosters or RSV—during the same visit. Ask your pharmacist for availability.
