[gbr8lM9EaWN] Health Updated on August 11, 2026 EDT — Published on August 11, 2026 EDT Here's a quick fact ➡️ The flu shot can't give you the flu! Yes, you can have a fever, feel a little under the weather, and have a runny nose after which are common short-lived side-effects related to an immune response, but you CAN NOT get the flu from the flu vaccine. The flu shot contains inactivated flu vaccine so it cannot give you the flu. When people get the flu immediately after the flu vaccine, they were likely exposed to someone who happened to have it. That's why it's best to get the flu vaccine now or before Halloween AKA before flu season begins.
