Seasonal Flu Shots in Edgewater, MD
Have you been vaccinated this year for the flu? Visit AFC Urgent Care for your seasonal flu shot today!
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends everyone 6 months and older to remain up-to-date on flu shots. A yearly flu vaccine will protect you against three influenza viruses that researchers suggest will be most common during each season.
Getting your annual flu shot can prevent or lessen common flu-like symptoms such as:
- Coughs
- Congestion
- Runny Nose
- Dehydration
- Fatigue
- Muscle Aches
- Joint Pains
What you should know before your flu shot:
The occasional side effects do occur from the flu vaccine but are very rare. In the case that they do arise, it’s within a few minutes to a few hours after receiving the shot and may involve soreness and/or swell in your arm or cold-like symptoms. It is essential to keep in mind that the benefits of getting a flu shot far outweigh the risk of flu shot side effects. Take steps to protect your health, visit our urgent care center! We offer all three types of flu vaccine – Regular Flu Shot, High Dose, and Intradermal.
Walk into our center 7 days a week, no appointment necessary, for you and your family’s flu shots. We accept most major health insurance plans and also provide affordable self-pay options for those without insurance.
