Getting a flu vaccine this season can reduce your risk of getting flu and help save scarce medical resources needed to care for people with COVID-19. It is important for everyone to do their part to stay healthy this flu season.

The more people vaccinated against flu, the more people protected from flu. Learn more: https://www.cdc.gov/flu/season/protect-your-health.html.

For those on Tulane’s BCBS medical plans, there is no cost to get a flu shot.  Pharmacies, clinics and providers offices can administer the vaccines. The CDC has provided a vaccine finder tool: https://vaccinefinder.org/find-vaccine.

In addition, the Tulane Living Well clinics can also provide a flu shot. Visit their webpage at: https://tulanelivingwell.com/.
