The Israeli military's Medical Corps has launched its annual flu vaccination campaign ahead of the winter season, aiming to reduce illness among service members and maintain operational readiness. Approximately 65,000 vaccine doses, along with accompanying medical supplies, have been ordered and are being distributed to all army units in two phases. The campaign, which will run until February 28, 2027, is available to both career soldiers and conscripts. Alongside vaccine distribution, an awareness campaign is underway to highlight the importance of vaccination, with a particular focus on at-risk populations. The Medical Corps encourages all regular, career, and reserve soldiers to visit military clinics for their flu shots. Vaccinations are available at most IDF clinics nationwide without the need for prior appointment. While not mandatory, medical recommendations advise vaccination each winter due to annual changes in influenza viruses. This early preparation and widespread accessibility of vaccines are part of the Medical Corps' ongoing effort to prevent illness, protect service members' health, and preserve their fitness for duty. The annual vaccination drive complements the Medical Corps' broader medical activities, including support for combat forces and immediate medical response to casualties. Full details regarding the vaccination operation will be communicated to service members through standard channels. The preparations also involve training medical teams and extensive logistical deployment to ensure maximum accessibility for all personnel across the country.
