Get protected with the updated COVID-19 and flu vaccines!

As a healthcare worker, you help others stay healthy. But you also have an increased risk of catching the flu and COVID-19 and spreading it to others. So, if you haven’t done it yet, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend getting both the updated 2024-25 COVID-19 and flu vaccines. And they have approved getting them both at the same visit.

Get a flu shot

Flu season is here and the best way to avoid the aches and pains the virus can bring is by getting vaccinated. If your employer offers the shot at your worksite, get it as soon as possible. If not, remember that your Benefit Fund covers this vaccine. So, make an appointment with your physician or visit a participating pharmacy.

Get the new COVID-19 booster

The virus that causes COVID-19 is always changing, and the new booster is here to help protect you from the latest variants. Even if you’ve been vaccinated or boosted in the past or had the virus, protection declines over time. So, speak with your doctor or schedule an appointment with a participating pharmacy to get the updated vaccine.
