Vaccine for 2023-24 flu season available at all Wegmans pharmacies

The influenza vaccine for the 2023-24 flu season is available at all Wegmans pharmacy locations.

A press release stated, “Getting your family ready for flu season is easy – just stop by your Wegmans pharmacy during normal business hours or schedule an appointment online. There is no need for a prescription and, in most cases, the fee is covered in full by insurance.

“The flu shot has been proven to reduce flu-related illnesses and the risk of serious flu complications that can result in hospitalization or even death. The CDC recommends everyone 6 months of age and older get a flu shot and take preventive actions like staying away from people who are sick, and frequent handwashing to help slow the spread of germs.”

All Wegmans pharmacy locations now offer flu vaccines for children, adults and seniors. Minimum age requirements for the pediatric flu immunization vary by state; contact a local Wegmans pharmacy to learn more.

The Wegmans pharmacy business partnership program offers onsite flu clinics for employers interested in giving employees “a quick and easy way to protect themselves from the flu, without leaving the office,” the press release noted. “Wegmans makes it easy for employers to host an on-site flu clinic with online scheduling for employees, and the ability to bill individual plan sponsors or billing direct to employers. The employer on-site flu clinics are offered in all Wegmans market areas.” For more information and to schedule an on-site flu clinic, visit the Wegmans pharmacy business partnership program on www.wegmans.com.

All Wegmans pharmacists are certified to administer immunizations through the American Pharmacists Associations’ pharmacy-based immunization delivery program. Wegmans pharmacy employees can also assist customers who need help determining their insurance policy’s coverage.
