Saturday’s Daily Piece: Tis the Season for Flu Shot

I am like everyone else in that I often put off the most important “to-do” things for my health. Well, this week, I am excited to share that I received my flu shot. Now, I must clear up a couple of myths.

Myth #1: I will be 100% protected from getting flu if exposed to a person with the flu after I receive the flu shot

Truth: You may still get the flu if exposed to person with the flu but the duration and severity will be decreased.

Myth #2: I will get the flu if I receive the flu shot

Truth: Flu shot is developed from a dead virus therefore it is impossible to develop the flu from a dead virus.

Please make sure to put getting your flu shot at the top of your “to-do” list. Join me in protecting yourself.
