Flu Shots
Our team of physicians also administer flu vaccinations to student patients. Flu season can be a bit a risk to nearly everyone which is why it is so important to get your flu shot. Flu vaccinations help provide your body with the various antibodies needed to fight off the flu. Some of the common strains of the virus that flu vaccinations can fight and ward off include Influenza a (H1N1) virus, Influenza A (H3H2) virus, and Influenza B virus.
We highly recommend that anybody over the age of 6 have a flu shot. However, individuals suffering with chronic illnesses may find themselves faced with a higher risk for complications from the vaccinations.
