GET YOUR FLU SHOT - The flu is serious. A flu shot is your best protection. Yearly vaccination is necessary because the vaccine is adapted to match each year’s expected flu viruses.  Now is the time to be vaccinated. Flu activity has started early this year and the Flu Season is now officially underway.
