@ihatediabetes.. Isn't it it a little too early for flu shots? Will this take us through the winter?

@mayofeb2020- I agree that it might be too early but supposedly we are supposed to get them earlier this year. CDC recommends September/October for this year. If you haven't gotten pneumonia shots then those ae advised also.

Perhaps this will help

I am not a health care professional. I figured that the flu shot would be seasonal. I also wanted to get it as early as possible. Earlier in the pandemic I also got the pneumonia shot. The pharmacist got it approved by saying I had asthma. I like getting shots at the pharmacy. It's very fast and I can time it with picking up refills.
