Influenza is a highly contagious virus. That’s why annual vaccination is recommended for everyone six months of age and older.
Protection is not immediate so ProHealth Care’s providers encourage you to get an immunization as soon as possible. It takes two weeks for your body to develop antibodies to protect you against the virus.
An influenza vaccination not only protects your health but also helps ensure you will not spread the virus to others.
ProHealth Care offers a number of walk-in immunization clinics beginning in October. Visit ProHealthCare.org/Flu to find a location near you.
