While flu activity peaks in December, flu season has already begun and plans to avoid the contagious illness should be your top priority.
Despite the fact that none of us aim to get sick, we rarely decrease our chances of contracting it either. The first step to minimize exposure would be getting a vaccination. If you can’t get to your primary care doctor, many pharmacies and urgent cares offer the shot, too.
Practicing healthy habits like washing your hands extremely frequently and disinfecting public surfaces such as your desk and gym locker can be crucial to staying healthy this winter.
