It's flu season!

What are ways to prevent the flu?

Granville Vance Public Health wants to help you protect yourself and your family from the flu!

  • Vaccination is the best protection available
  • Wash your hands
  • Cover your mouth when you cough or sneeze
  • If you are sick, stay home from work and keep your kids home from school if they are sick so it does not spread
  • If you do become sick with the flu, there are antiviral medications you can speak about with your doctor

Also, the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention has information on flu at https://www.cdc.gov/flu/index.htm.

The annual flu vaccine is the first and most important step in protecting you and your family from the flu. 

The Multitasker - I'm way too busy to get the flu vaccine. You're too busy to get the flu. Make time to get the vaccine.
The Skeptic - I'm not sure the flu vaccine really works. The flu is guaranteed to knock anyone off their game. Why take those odds? Get the vaccine instead.
The Invicible - I'm healthy. I won't get the flu. Healthy people do everything they can to avoid the flu, and that means getting the vaccine.
