October Blog 2 – The Flu

Do I need to get the flu vaccine every year?

Yes, the flu shot is recommended annually because it only provides protection for 1 year. Although, vaccination is the best protection against the flu, follow preventative measures such as washing hands frequently, sneezing into arm/elbow and getting proper nutrition to stay healthy and stop the spread of the virus. Stay home and rest if you feel like you have symptoms of the flu (fever, cough, sore throat, body aches, weakness). A pharmacist can recommend over-the-counter products that are suitable for you. Or to protect yourself against the flu, pharmacists will be providing flu shots by the end of October.
