HOW TO PREPARE FOR THE UPCOMING COLD & FLU SEASON
We strongly encourage those of you who are eligible to get a covid booster this fall and the flu shot. These infections are best prevented! Please vaccinate yourselves and your families, we are doing the same.
RSV is another respiratory virus that is circulating in the community. The elderly and young infants are especially susceptible and can become hospitalized if infected. There is a vaccine that is available for people over 60, children under 2 and pregnant people.
Beyond vaccines, other means to protect yourself and your loved ones include good hand hygiene, wearing a mask and isolating when you are sick. We kindly ask if you do have any infectious symptoms to wear a mask into the clinic to reduce transmission.
