A member asked:
What are reasons why should a healthy person between the ages of 15 and 24 get a flu shot?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
FLU vaccine.: According to the CDC: 'All people 6 months of age and older should get flu vaccine.' You can check site at: http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/pubs/vis/downloads/vis-flu.pdf. Getting the flu shot is important because it can prevent you from getting the flu or lead to lighter symptoms if you do become infected. Take care.
