New at-home flu vaccine kits and pilot programs are making it easier for people to get vaccinated without visiting a clinic. These options are designed to simplify the process by providing clear instructions and support, allowing individuals to administer the vaccine themselves or with minimal assistance. While availability and guidelines may vary, the goal is to expand convenient access to seasonal flu protection.
