Immunizations

Influenza Vaccine Update

We are concerned about your health, especially as we are currently in the middle of flu season. We encourage everyone to get vaccinated annually against influenza.
 It’s critical that everyone who is able receives a flu vaccine. It’s essential that active duty service members, active duty family members, and other beneficiaries are well-protected from influenza.

Active Duty Service Members

Active duty service members, National Guard, and Reserve members are required to get the flu vaccine. The 27th SOMDG is available to active duty service members only.
Appointments aren't required; walk-in daily, 7:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.

Active Duty Family Members and Other Beneficiaries

Due to delays in flu vaccine shipments, the 27th SOMDG is currently limiting the flu immunization to active duty service members, children ages 6 months-35 months, and adults ages 65 and above. Once the remainder of Cannon’s flu vaccine allotment arrives, the immunization will be available to all beneficiaries.

Other Options for Getting the Flu Vaccine

If you’re unable to get the flu vaccine here at the 27th Medical Group, you can visit any participating network pharmacy or TRICARE-authorized (civilian) provider.
When you get a flu vaccine from anywhere besides 27th SOMDG, follow your service policy guidance for recording the vaccine in your shot record. You'll need the following information:

• The date the vaccine was given
• The vaccine name or code
• Manufacturer
• Lot number
