It's Flu Season (https://goo.gl/pRdqPg)
Which means it's time to get your flu shot! While it's still too soon to tell if this year's bug will be particularly bad, health officials recently had some good news to share. The virus that affected many Australians throughout their fall and winter months is a very close match to the vaccine that is being used this year in the US.
Getting a flu shot is not only important for your health, but it's important for the health of the people around you as well. While you may not mind suffering through sickness, children, the elderly, and people with suppressed immune systems especially benefit from people around them being healthy.
