Influenza, or the flu, can cause mild to severe illness, with symptoms commonly including fever or feeling feverish or having chills, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, muscle or body aches, headaches, fatigue (tiredness), and vomiting and diarrhea. Flu viruses are highly contagious, spread from person to person mainly by tiny droplets from coughing, sneezing, or talking.
Immunization and vaccination information.
Vaccination is the best protection against getting the flu — it protects not only you but also limits the spread of flu to your loved ones and others. The flu can make even healthy people very sick and cause serious complications in children younger than 5, pregnant women, people 65 years and older, and people with certain chronic health conditions.
Flu vaccines are now available at many locations throughout our community, including healthcare provider offices, pharmacies, and clinics.
