Influenza (or Flu) season can be very unpredictable so NOW is a good time to get vaccinated. Flu vaccine is the single best way to protect yourself and your loved ones against the Flu. The vaccine is recommended for everyone 6 months and older. There are several Flu vaccine options for the 2013-2014 Flu season.  The CDC (Center for Disease Control) does not recommend one Flu vaccine over the other. Talk with your healthcare provider, pharmacist or immunization expert on what is the best option for you. The most important thing is to get a flu vaccine this year and every year.
If you would like more information on the Flu, please go to the CDC’s website www.cdc.gov/flu. Also go to http://hd.ingham.org/Home/Immunizations/SeasonalFlu.aspx to see when you can get your flu shot at one of our clinics starting on October 1.
