Help Spread the Message about Flu Vaccines
There are early signs that this upcoming flu season in the U.S. could be severe, according to recent CDC data. Flu hospitalizations are on the rise, and they are higher than usual at this time in the season. Flu is one of several respiratory illnesses circulating, including RSV and COVID-19.
We encourage health centers to spread the word about the importance of getting the flu vaccine in your community. Visit GetMyFluShot.org for Flu Vaccination campaign toolkits.
