Flu FAQs
What is the flu?
The flu (influenza) is a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses. It can cause mild to severe symptoms and spreads easily — especially during fall and winter.
What are the symptoms?
Flu symptoms often come on suddenly and may include:
- Fever or chills
- Cough or sore throat
- Runny or stuffy nose
- Muscle or body aches
- Fatigue
- Headaches
- Sometimes vomiting or diarrhea (more common in children)
Do I really need a flu shot every year?
Yes. The flu virus changes over time, so the vaccine is updated annually to protect against the most common strains. Immunity from last year’s shot also fades over time.
Where can I get my flu shot?
You can easily book a flu shot near you through the PARAMOUNT Superapp — we offer same- or next-day appointments.
Can I still get the flu even if I got the vaccine?
Yes, but your symptoms are likely to be milder and shorter. The vaccine reduces the risk of severe illness, hospitalization, and complications.
Can I get the flu shot if I’m feeling sick?
If you have mild symptoms (like a cold or allergies), you can usually still get vaccinated. But if you have a fever or more serious illness, it’s best to wait. Reach out via the app if you're unsure.
