Get a flu shot
We Can Do It — Stop the Flu!
The flu isn't just inconvenient. It can kill! When you get the flu, you expose your friends, family and co-workers to infection. You can spread the flu virus before you feel sick, and for days afterwards. Infected material from a cough or sneeze can travel up to 3 feet! Together we can stop the flu virus from spreading. What can you do? Get a flu shot!
Here's how:
- At your doctor's office – free for you and your family
- On site county worksite clinics – free for you
- Aetna covered employees – Maxim Health Systems clinics. Free for you and your family.
Regardless of where you get a flu shot, it's important that you think about getting one.
