Flu News

The flu season in southeast Michigan usually begins around October and ends around the middle of April or early May. Just before flu season begins, Detroit Medical Center (DMC) works to ensure that all DMC employees and patients are informed about where to get vaccinated, when it is available and why getting the "flu shot" each year prevents the spread of flu infections and safeguards the health of DMC employees, patients, and their families.

The information maintained on this site is intended to keep both the public and employees informed of the latest developments regarding the flu vaccination and other flu infection preventive measures

To talk to a DMC Nurse 24/7 about the flu, call toll-free: (888) DMC-2500.
