Tis the Season for the Flu – Get Your Vaccine Early

(OKLAHOMA CITY) – Flu Season is here and Today Clinic is helping Oklahomans get ahead of the virus and stay healthy.

The Centers for Disease Control warn Influenza is a serious disease that can lead to hospitalization and sometimes even death.  Today Clinic doctors say people at high risk for flu include the very young, the very old, pregnant people, and people with chronic medical conditions especially children.

To be well protected it is not just very important for these individuals to get the vaccine, but also anyone who is around people in these groups. There is no better way to show how much you care about the health of one of your friends or family members than getting yourself vaccinated!

Dr. Brett Cauthen, MD, MPH Today Clinic Medical Director says virtually everyone will get the flu at least once every four years. While fortunately the flu is just an annoyance for most, they will likely spread the virus often to those closest to you. Keep in mind that on average about 500 Oklahomans die from flu related complications every year. Many of us will know one of these people. With that much riding on vaccination, it makes no sense that not everyone gets the vaccine. It is easy, harmless, and fast. Why wait? Protect your family... Get your vaccine today!

Vaccines are available at all Today Clinic locations.  No appointment necessary.
