There is still time to get an influenza vaccine that could protect you during the remainder of the 2012-2013 flu season.

FDA has approved influenza vaccines from seven manufacturers, and collectively they have produced an estimated 135 million doses of this season’s flu vaccine for the U.S. So far, more than 128 million of those doses have been distributed, though not all of those doses have been administered yet, according to our sister agency, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

We have received reports that some consumers have found spot shortages of the vaccine. We are monitoring this situation and will update you at ourWebsite and at www.flu.gov.
