Small Shot. Huge Impact.

With the cold weather here to stay for the next couple of months, and the possibility of chill and snow just around the corner, something else is upon us; the Flu Season ?

Influenza, commonly known as the flu, is a common, highly contagious respiratory infection that affects the nose, throat and lungs, and makes you feel quite ill. 

Flu symptoms usually last about 7-10 days and are not like a common cold. It is a serious infection especially in infants, seniors and people who have other pre-existing medical conditions ?

It is important to get the flu shot in order to protect yourself, your family, your colleagues, and the individuals we support and care for from the flu ?❤️
