This morning, County Executive @DrSamPage dropped some facts about the importance of getting a flu shot as we continue to deal with COVID-19. Watch the full video from this morning here: facebook.com/25299726489194…
📰 Getting a flu shot has always been a key step in staying healthy. With the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s never been more important. Common symptoms of COVID-19 – fever, coughing, congestion, difficulty breathing – are similar to the symptoms of the flu.
➡ Getting a flu shot decreases your chances of getting the flu or makes infection with the flu less severe. Keeping people healthy and out of hospitals for flu treatment supports our community by preserving our capacity to provide hospital care for people with COVID-19.
