Our DHSS team members rolled up their sleeves today to fight the flu! The single best way to prevent the flu is to get a flu vaccine every year. Have you scheduled your flu shot yet?
A yearly flu vaccine is recommended for everyone 6 months and older. Those at high risk for the flu include:
- Adults 65 years and older
- Pregnant individuals
- Young children
- Children with underlying medical conditions
- Individuals with these conditions: asthma, heart disease or stroke, diabetes, HIV/AIDS and/or cancer
Protect yourself and your family from the flu and COVID-19 through vaccination. We encourage you to visit with your health care provider to answer additional questions.
