Influenza (flu) vaccines (often called “flu shots”) are vaccines that protect against the four influenza viruses that research indicates most common during the upcoming season. The flu vaccine is offered statewide throughout flu season at many locations, including your doctor's office, pharmacies, grocery stores with pharmacies and also at numerous Department of Health facilities. The Pennsylvania Department of Health offers flu vaccines to those who are uninsured and underinsured. Those interested in receiving a flu vaccine can call 1-877-PA-HEALTH (1-877-724-3258) or their local state health center to schedule an appointment. Learn more about the flu vaccine and find an upcoming flu vaccine clinic near you.
