Importance Of Flu Vaccine
One of the most important steps you can take to protect yourself from the seasonal flu is to get a flu vaccination. It’s recommended that you get your flu jab as soon as possible, preferably before the onset of winter. By getting vaccinated, you not only protect yourself but also contribute to community immunity.
