Still to this day, the most important and effective defense against influenza is the flu shot.
We are in the middle of influenza season and every year there is a new strain.
Common symptoms include fever, chills, cough, nausea, vomiting and muscle aches.
Make sure you wash your hands frequently and if you do get the flu, it is important to keep yourself hydrated.
If you have not received your flu shot yet, make sure you contact Lawrence County Memorial Hospital to see what your options are! Call (618) 943-1000 or click here for more information!
