 Stay Informed: Seasonal Flu, COVID-19, and You!

Being in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, our staff at the Big Y Pharmacy and Wellness Center understand that you may be hesitant to receive your annual flu vaccine.

Getting the flu vaccine this year will be critical in minimizing the amount of illness in your community and lessening the burden on the health care system.

Reach out to your local pharmacy today for more information.  Masks are required to get a vaccination.  Appointments are recommended to limit wait times and keep with social distancing guidelines.  

Save time by filling out your Vaccine Informed Consent Form before arriving.

Use our chart below to compare symptoms of COVID-19 with that of the flu.  Many symptoms overlap and you should reach out to your health care provider if you develop symptoms.
