Yearly vaccination before the onset of each flu season is recommended.
In Victoria, flu season generally occurs from June to September.

Recent evidence suggests optimal protection against the flu occurs within the first 3-4 months following vaccination.

So, that’s why it’s recommended to get your flu shot from April onwards (that’s now πŸ‘€)

It is important to note that, it is never too late to vaccinate as influenza can circulate in the community all year round.
