PSA: Flu shot

[picksthemusic]

Just an FYI, our clinic has been seeing confirmed influenza. PLEASE get your flu shot if you can! The people we've seen are mis-er-a-ble.

I second this. There is a massive outbreak of the flu where my grandpa is this resulted in him having to wait overnight in the ER as there were no hospital beds available. Flu shots are good for you!

Yeah, tell her bjl could get really sick if she gives her the flu, and you won't let her be around her until she gets it.

REALLY dumb question (as this is our first flu season here) - where does one get the flu shot? Do I need to make an appointment with my doctor?

The little people both got it at a recent check up, but what about my husband and I?

(Last time, we were in Canada.)

Depends on your dr office. At my work, we do a drop in type clinic. I know pharmacies give them. Maybe call your dr & see what they suggest. Or stop by Walgreens.
