While influenza vaccination is recommended for all persons over 6 months of age,
the following are considered high risk and should make flu shots a priority:
-
Persons over 50 years of age

Children and adults who have chronic lung or
heart problems including asthma
-
Children aged 6 months through 6 years old

In addition to vaccination, the best ways to

your cough, avoid crowded situations during peak flu season, and stay home if
you are ill.
