Preventing Seasonal Flu

With the flu season just around the corner, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) prescribe a three-step approach to fight the flu.

  1. Take time to get a flu shot.
  2. Take preventive actions like washing hands, covering coughs and sneezes.
  3. Take flu antiviral drugs, if prescribed by your doctor.
