It is really important, particularly for older adults, to get their flu shot each and every year. It's really two reasons. One is the flu virus keeps changing, and you want the most updated protection you can get against the flu. Second, the fact that you've gotten a flu shot in the past, that protection decreases over time. So you want to boost up your immune system to the most it can be going into the flu season. Skipping your flu shot can put you at higher risk for getting into the hospital and sadly dying from flu. We do not want to see that happen.
