Anyone can get the flu, whether you are healthy, young, old, have had it before, or never had it. According to the Lehigh Valley Health Network,
“Getting a flu vaccine is one of the best things you can do for the health of you and/or your child. It can prevent serious illness. You need a new vaccine each year because the immunity wears off over time. Also, each year the vaccine is adjusted to attack new strains and variations of influenza, giving you an added layer of protection. For example, last year’s flu vaccines included protection against H1N1 (“swine flu”), which had appeared nationwide in 2009.”
There are many places in the Lehigh Valley that offer the flu vaccine, making it easy for you to find a location close to you. In addition to the convenience, some places are even offering FREE flu vaccines.
Dorney Park and Coca Cola Park
The Lehigh Valley Health Network will be offering free flu shots again this year at Dorney Park and Coca Cola Park, on November 5-6.
