flag The AMA urges Americans to get updated flu, RSV, and COVID-19 vaccines to prevent severe illness this season.

flag As colder weather increases indoor gatherings, respiratory viruses are expected to spread more easily. flag The American Medical Association urges everyone 6 months and older to get a flu vaccine as soon as possible, noting it can reduce hospitalizations by up to 60% in children and 40% in adults. flag Last year’s flu season caused over 620,000 hospitalizations and 27,000 deaths, with vaccination rates below 50%. flag Adults 75 and older, and those 50–74 with certain health conditions, should consider RSV vaccination, which is not annual. flag Pregnant individuals can protect infants through RSV vaccination or monoclonal antibodies. flag People 6 months and older, especially those at higher risk, should also get a current COVID-19 vaccine. flag The AMA recommends consulting a healthcare provider and taking additional steps like handwashing, covering coughs, improving indoor air quality, and staying home when sick to help reduce virus spread.
