What is the flu?
The flu (a.k.a. influenza) is a highly contagious virus that infects millions of people every year.
Unlike the common cold, the flu can last up to two weeks, with some symptoms lasting even longer. Influenza can be potentially life-threatening to high-risk groups such as children, seniors, and those with certain medical conditions.
Getting your flu shot is a way to take preventative measures against the flu.

In addition to vaccination, washing your hands, eating right, sleeping well, managing stress, and moving more are all ways that you can keep healthy during this flu season and beyond.
