Influenza (flu) is a potentially serious disease that can lead to hospitalization and sometimes even death. Protect you and your family this flu season by getting the influenza vaccine, or flu shot, that protects against the influenza viruses that are likely to cause disease in the upcoming flu season. The Monroe County Health Department encourages residents to get vaccinated against the flu and is holding community flu vaccine clinics this fall to make getting your flu shot easy and convenient for you and your family!
Everyone ages six months and older should get a flu vaccine each year to prevent sickness from the flu. It takes about two weeks for the flu vaccine to protect against the virus, so make a plan today to get yourself and your family vaccinated. Join us at one of our upcoming community flu vaccine clinics:
