Be a love bug, not a flu bug...

Tuesday, October 6, 2009

The flu is much more serious than the common cold and can lead to severe health complications. Getting a flu shot each fall is the single best way to help prevent the flu and protect yourself and those around you during flu season.

Everyone in your household should get a flu shot each year, but it’s especially important for:

  • Adults over 50 years old
  • Children 6 months to 18 years
  • Anyone with on-going health conditions, like diabetes, heart disease or lung disease
  • Women who are pregnant during flu season
  • Health care workers
  • Anyone living with or caring for someone in one of these categories, or who has a child less than 6 months old.

For more information on flu shots, please contact your healthcare provider.
