Lane County Public Health
(LCPH) is urging community
members to get their flu shot
early in order to proactively
prevent as much influenza in
our community as possible.
During the 2016-2017 flu
season, Lane County saw an
alarming prevalence of flu
throughout the county and as a
result, double-digit deaths
attributed to influenza.
Getting an annual flu vac-
cine, and getting it early in the
season, is the first and best way
to protect yourself, your fami-
ly, and your community from
the flu. Flu vaccination can
reduce flu illnesses, doctors’
visits and missed work and
school due to flu, as well as
prevent flu-related hospitaliza-

For 2017-2018, three-com-
ponent vaccines are recom-
mended to contain:
• A/Michigan/45/2015
(H1N1)pdm09-like
virus
(updated)
• A/Hong Kong/4801/2014
(H3N2)-like virus
• B/Brisbane/60/2008-like
(B/Victoria lineage) virus
Quadrivalent (four-compo-
nent) vaccines, which protect
against a second lineage of B
viruses, are recommended to be
produced using the same virus-
es recommended for the triva-
lent vaccines, as well as a
B/Phuket/3073/2013-like
(B/Yamagata lineage) virus.
It is important to note that
pregnant women may receive
any licensed, recommended
and age-appropriate flu vac-
cine. Additionally, for our older
community members who are
among those most at risk, a
“high-dose” vaccine is avail-
able.

However, getting vaccinated
later can still be beneficial and
vaccination should continue to
be offered throughout the flu
season, even into January or
later.
Some flu shots protect
against three flu viruses
(Trivalent) and some protect
against four flu viruses
(Quadrivalent) and both are
currently available at the Lane
County Communicable
Disease Clinic as well as a
number of pharmacies through-
out Lane County.
This season, only injectable
flu vaccines (flu shots) are rec-
ommended as the use of the
nasal spray flu vaccine (LAIV)
was not reccomended for the
2017-8 season.
The composition of U.S. flu
vaccines is reviewed annually
and updated as needed to
match circulating flu viruses.
Flu vaccines protect against
the three or four viruses

In 2017, a study from the
American
Academy
of
Pediatrics was the first of its
kind to show that flu vaccina-
tion also significantly reduced
a child’s risk of dying from
influenza.
“We know pretty clearly that
the more people who get vacci-
nated, the more people will be
protected from flu, including
older people, very young chil-
dren, pregnant women and peo-
ple with certain long-term
health conditions who are more
vulnerable to serious flu com-
plications,” said Lane County
Health Officer, Dr. Patrick
Luedtke.
While “Flu Season” general-
ly lasts from early fall through
early spring, it takes about two
weeks after vaccination for
antibodies to develop in the
body that protect against flu, so
LCPH is recommending com-
munity members make plans to
get vaccinated early, before flu
season begins so they will have
immunity once the season is in
