Flu Shots: Where To Get Them In New Brunswick

As flu season approaches, New Brunswick residents are encouraged to get their flu shot to protect themselves and those around them. The flu shot is one of the best ways to prevent the flu and is offered at various locations across the province, including pharmacies like Pharmasave and Sobeys Pharmacy, and through primary care providers, Public Health nurses, and New Brunswick extramural program health professionals. It is important to note that the flu vaccine is recommended for anyone over the age of six months and is particularly crucial for those in high-risk groups, such as pregnant women and people with chronic health conditions. With a potential surge in flu cases and COVID-19 still circulating, getting vaccinated is a crucial step in protecting one's health and reducing the strain on New Brunswick's healthcare system.
