Flu season is in full swing, and cases are rising across the country. According to the CDC, flu activity has reached the highest levels seen in more than 25 years.
The good news? It’s not too late to protect yourself and your loved ones. Flu season can extend through late spring, and simple prevention habits, like staying home when sick, avoiding crowded indoor spaces, and washing your hands regularly, can make a meaningful difference.
If you develop flu symptoms such as fever, body aches, cough, sore throat, or fatigue, don’t wait it out. Connecting with a trusted primary care provider or scheduling an urgent care telehealth visit early can help guide next steps and, in some cases, allow for timely antiviral treatment.
Staying informed and proactive is one of the best ways to stay well this flu season.
