Tuesday December 7th, the third official day of National Influenza Vaccination Week is here and the focus today is on those with chronic conditions. If you have:
Diabetes
Heart Disease
Asthma, Bronchitis or other upper respiratory diseases
or if you are overweight and/or a smoker
Today is your day!! If you catch the Flu, it could be your life. Because of your chronic condition(s) you are already at a disadvantage for fighting the Flu. Why take chances? It's so easy to get a Flu shot and save yourself from the virus.
Contact Passport Health and inquire about an appointment for a flu vaccination. While you are there, talk to your health care provider about a Pneumonia shot as well.
Check out Dr. David Hill (love the bowtie) explaining a bit about the Influenza Virus and how the strains can mutate each year.
