  CDC recommends everyone 6 months and older get an influenza (flu) vaccine every year. Flu vaccine has been shown to prevent millions of illnesses, tens of thousands of hospitalizations and thousands of deaths each year.
  
  As a health care professional (HCP), your strong recommendation is a critical factor in whether your patients get an influenza vaccine. Research indicates that adults are more likely to get their flu vaccine if their doctor or health care professional recommends it to them. Most adults believe vaccines are important, but they need a reminder from you to get vaccinated.
