It's now possible to give yourself a flu vaccine at home
Briefly

FluMist Home is the first nasal spray flu vaccine available for home delivery in the United States, enabling self-administration by adults under 50 and children aged 2 and older. The vaccine can be ordered online with a brief medical questionnaire reviewed by a licensed health-care provider. This option was approved by the FDA in September 2024 after two decades on the market. Experts believe that this self-administrable vaccine may improve vaccination rates during a critical flu season, as last year saw high rates of illness, hospitalization, and death from the flu, with many failing to get vaccinated despite the rising acceptance of home-administered healthcare solutions.
FluMist Home, the only nasal spray flu vaccine in the US, is now available for home delivery in 34 states for self-administration by adults under 50 and children with assistance.
With FluMist Home, individuals can now order an FDA-approved flu vaccine at home, featuring a medical questionnaire reviewed by a licensed health-care provider to facilitate access.
