On-Site Flu Shots from BarnesCare

Influenza. The flu bug. It is the dreaded illness that appears every winter with fever and respiratory distress. What's the best prevention against the flu? On-site flu shots from BarnesCare. An annual flu shot is the undisputed best way to prevent the flu and keep your company healthy. BarnesCare is already scheduling on-site flu shots.

BarnesCare's three convenient locations will begin giving flu shots in late October. No appointment is necessary.

Anyone can get the flu. Most people are sick with the flu for a few days, but it's more serious than a bad cold. Every year more than 200,000 people in the United States are hospitalized from flu complications and about 36,000 die. Every year in the United States, up to 20 percent of the population is affected by the flu.

The best time to get a flu shot is in October or November, but because flu season typically peaks between January and March, vaccination in December or later can still be beneficial.
