🤧A new flu strain – H3N2 subclade K – is spreading this season. The flu virus changes often, and multiple strains spread at the same time.

💉 A yearly flu vaccine offers critical protection against severe illness, hospitalization, and death from flu, even if it is not a perfect match to circulating strains.

It's not too late to get this season's flu vaccine!
