Covid Resources: 

It’s flu season! Each flu season is unique and can affect people differently. An annual seasonal flu vaccine is the best way to help protect you and your family against the flu. It is even more important now than ever to get vaccinated. Getting your flu shot this year protects you, protects your family, and helps make sure healthcare workers and hospitals in your community have resources to continue to treat COVID-19 patients.  

It’s not too late to get the flu shot. With flu season lasting into April or May, getting a flu shot now will help protect you and your family for the next couple of months. To find a flu vaccine clinic near you, click here.
