Care on Location wants you to be ready for this year’s flu season. As things open back up and children return to school, flu will start to spread.
Here are a few steps to keep your family healthy.
- Sleeve Up! Get your flu shot by the end of October. Most pharmacies offer a free flu shot. Call the pharmacies to see if they accept your insurance. If you don’t have insurance, retail pharmacies will tell you how much a shot will cost.
- Lather Up! The flu virus can live on surfaces, so wipe down high touch surfaces like light switches or doorknobs and wash your hands frequently.
- Mask Up! To help stop the spread, wear your mask. It is important to always cover your cough and sneezes since flu and COVID19 are both respiratory diseases.
- Schedule an appointment with Care on Location if you feel sick. It is important to talk to a healthcare provider about your symptoms and next steps to feel better.
- Ask your doctor about antivirals medicines. These medicines can be used to treat flu illness and shorten the time you are sick.
