Become a Flu Fighter

Being prepared for anything includes fighting off the flu! Believe it or not, flu can happen in the early spring, too. The best way to protect yourself is with the vaccination. Aside from vaccinations there are also small adjustments to your daily habits that can help keep you and those around you healthy: washing your hands often with soap and water, and covering your mouth and nose when you sneeze with a tissue or the inside of your elbow (NOT your hands!). If you do get sick, make sure to stay home from school or work and don't return until you're fever free for at least 24 hours.
