It depends on when "flu season" is expected in your area. For North America, that's typically winter-ish. From the CDC website[^]:

Flu vaccination should begin soon after vaccine becomes available, if possible by October. However, as long as flu viruses are circulating, vaccination should continue to be offered throughout the flu season, even in January or later.

Before the start of the winter season when this years flu signatures are in the latest vaccine. Generally the vaccines are developed based on what happened in the winter countries in the other half of the hemisphere so the latest will be available in Autumn. Your Doctor medical centre will know when they get the latest and should be able to inform you when it arrives.

Me. Well, you can't go at 14:30 because you'll be going to the Dentist then ...

A lot of the other kids in my school are doing it, so I thought I would too.

Well that makes sense, ask the CDC. Good brain in your head.

The might I suggest something more recreational?

How dare you! I was sober for the weekend so I could drive the 1,000 miles home.

Friday we packed the car and went for an early dinner with a glass [on this case an honest, single glass; all be it large] of wine. Saturday was a quick 900 miles across Europe with a welcome brace of beers on stopping for the night. Yesterday we crossed the migrant infested Channel and, after unloading, the very pooped Vilmos went to bed early. Sober.

If you need it, before flu season. It would be recommended for everyone with a weak(er) immune-system.

My doc. I get an invitation each year but never accept it. My immune-system may be weaker than the average, it can handle flu without aid - helping it out when it does not need it does not sound like a good idea to me.
