Flu Season Protection Starts Here

Getting a flu shot each year is one of the easiest ways to protect your health—and the health of those around you. While the flu might seem like a minor illness, it can lead to serious complications, especially for young children, older adults, and people with certain health conditions. It’s quick, safe, and highly effective at preventing serious illness.

Here’s why it’s worth it:

• Protects you from severe illness: Even if you get the flu, the shot can reduce symptoms and recovery time.
• Protects others: You help shield coworkers, friends, and family—especially those at higher risk.
• Reduces missed workdays: Fewer sick days mean more consistency at work and home.
• Prevents healthcare overload: Less flu means fewer hospital visits and more room for emergencies.
• Covered under preventive care: Health plans cover flu shots at 100%, with no out-of-pocket cost to you.

The flu virus changes every year, which is why annual vaccination is important. It’s not just about staying healthy—it’s about protecting your whole community.
