💉 Fight back and stay healthy this . 💉

Ditch the chills, aches, and sniffles. Getting the shot offers a powerful shield against the flu, including:

Milder Symptoms: Even if you catch the flu, the vaccine can help reduce its severity
Reduced risk of Hospitalization: It can significantly lower your risk of needing hospitalization from the flu.
Safe and effective: Safe and effective for all. For pregnant women, it also protects their newborn before they can get vaccinated themselves.
