The best way to protect yourself from getting sick during flu season is to get a flu shot. It’s recommended that everyone over 6 months of age gets vaccinated each year, and it can help prevent serious complications from influenza. Additionally, washing your hands frequently with soap and water, avoiding touching your face, and covering coughs and sneezes are all important steps to take to reduce the spread of germs.
