August: A great time to get vaccinated. Vaccines protect you all year round, but August is a great time to get vaccinated. In August, as summer winds down, itâs a good time for you and your family to make plans to get the flu vaccine. The vaccine usually becomes available in mid- to late-August.
Even though it's best to get vaccinated as soon as the flu vaccine is available, getting the vaccine later can still be helpful. Even as late as January, there are still a few months left in the flu season, so it's still a good idea to get protected. The flu vaccine is recommended for everyone age 6 months and older.
