Flu Vaccine Information

Elmhurst Clinic is currently offering the 2011-2012 seasonal vaccine at all of our sites. Please contact your primary physician’s office to schedule an appointment.


Influenza viruses are always changing, so annual vaccination is recommended. Each year scientists try to match the viruses in the vaccine to those most likely to cause flu that year.

The 2011-2012 seasonal vaccine provides protection against A/H1N1 (pandemic) influenza and two other influenza viruses – influenza A/H3N2 and influenza B. It will not prevent illness caused by other viruses.

The vaccine is recommended for patients ages 6 months and up. It takes up to two weeks for protection to develop after the shot. Protection lasts about a year.

Once again, we invite you to please contact your primary physician’s office.

Please continue to check our website periodically for updates as information will be posted once it becomes available.
