Flu activity is declining nationally; however, activity persists in parts of the country. Getting a vaccine now may still protect you if you live someplace where flu activity continues. Also, vaccination is still recommended during institutional outbreaks, for children who need their second vaccine dose, and for some travelers. It’s also important to remember that antiviral drugs can treat flu illness, offering a second line of defense against the flu.
