Flu Season Awareness
The weather has turned cold and flu season is now upon us. Flu season is when influenza activity increases and flu viruses are most common. In the United States, flu season is typically during the fall and winter months, with flu activity beginning to increase in October and November and peaking between December and February.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that in the United States, flu has resulted in between 9.3 million and 49 million illnesses each year since 2010. A flu vaccination is the primary and most effective way to prevent seasonal flu.
Attention: Flu vaccines are now available at all clinic locations between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. No appointment necessary.
