At Lakeview Clinic, we care about you and your family’s ongoing health. Our providers have noticed many people’s immune systems being more easily compromised after the COVID-19 pandemic. RSV is already running rampant. Flu hospitalizations are worse than usual for this time of year, according to data published by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. 

Getting an annual flu shot is more important than ever and the best way to protect yourself.

 

Who should get a flu shot?

The CDC recommends everyone ages 6 months and older get a flu shot each year. If you have certain medical conditions including asthma, a weakened immune system, diabetes, chronic heart or lung disease, are pregnant or 65 years of age or older, it is especially important that you get vaccinated.
