We’re heading into flu season, and October is a great time to get that vaccination. Though the flu is a relatively normal part of human life, it is important to remember that many people are hospitalized and die every year due to the influenza virus. The flu vaccine helps not only to reduce your chance of catching the virus, but also protects more vulnerable members of our communities. Children and infants, older adults, people who are immunocompromised, and people who are pregnant are all people we are helping to protect when we get a flu vaccine.
