You don't need the flu shot every year. FALSE!

Pharmacist Nate Boutte explains why it’s so important for everyone six months and older to get an annual flu shot. Schedule your flu shot at walgreens.com/flu or stop by your local Walgreens for a walk-in appointment.

A lot of people think they don't need to get a flu shot every year.

With very few exceptions, everyone six months and older should get an annual flu shot.

Immunity from a vaccine declines over time, and getting your shot every year helps you maintain maximum protection against the flu.

Also, flu viruses often mutate and vaccines can be updated, depending on which strains are making people sick.
