Agency's annual report predicts ample supply of vaccine
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says that with flu activity currently low, it's the perfect time to get vaccinated.
“It takes about two weeks after vaccination for the body′s immune response to fully kick in,” says Joe Bresee, M.D., Chief of CDC′s Influenza Epidemiology and Prevention Branch. “It′s best to get vaccinated before activity begins so that you′ll be protected once flu season starts in your community.”
