The Flu Shot
Well, it’s that time again. Do you have plans on heading to the doctor to get the flu shot or do you have a good reason to avoid it? Just in case you are wondering, I dug up this little bit of information to help you decide.
“In general, anyone who wants to reduce their chances of getting the flu can get vaccinated. However, it is recommended by ACIP that certain people should get vaccinated each year. They are either people who are at high risk of having serious flu complications or people who live with or care for those at high risk for serious complications. During flu seasons when vaccine supplies are limited or delayed, ACIP makes recommendations regarding priority groups for vaccination.”

The company I work for is providing Flu Shots for us this November, as they do every year. It’s so handy. Just a short trip down the hall, and it’s over.
