The leaves again are turning and the crisp cool air is ushering in the Fall season. This should remind us to protect ourselves from a seasonal problem – the ﬂu. A person contracts the ﬂu from a virus. Symptoms include fague, muscle ache, joint pain, loss of appete, headache, cough or fever. For some people the ﬂu lasts only a few days, but for others it can be very harmful, leaving them severely ill, requiring hospitalizaon and even death. From 1976 to 2007 it is esmated that 49,000 people died from the ﬂu. Older paents are aﬀected most by the ﬂu’s complicaons. The ﬂu shot is an easy way to protect yourself from the ﬂu and its complicaons. Between the ﬁrst of October and mid-November is the best me to get your vaccine. A2er taking the ﬂu vaccine you will build anbodies in the body in about two weeks which will help provide protecon against the ﬂu. However, you must have a shot every year because the virus causing the ﬂu mutates and changes each year and then a new vaccine has to be developed each year. The seasonal ﬂu vaccine protects against ﬂu viruses that research indicates will be most common during the upcoming season. Tradional ﬂu vaccines are made to protect against three ﬂu viruses but this season the vaccines are made to protect against four ﬂu viruses – called a quadrivalent vaccine. Everyone from age 6 months up should receive the ﬂu vaccine. However, high-risk paents: i.e. especially healthcare workers, children less than 5 years of age, adults older than 65, nursing home residents, pregnant women and paents with comorbid disease such as heart, lung, kidney and diabec problems, and those on treatment for cancer and HIV should deﬁnitely get a ﬂu shot. One fear is that the ﬂu shot will give you the ﬂu. The shot is safe, but one in four people may noce a li9le redness, tenderness or swelling. The shot is easy to obtain and is free for Medicare beneﬁciaries. So, please GET YOUR FLU SHOT! - Dr. Dan H om es t ea d Vil lag e Rev iew Page 8 October 2014 Come Join us for our Holiday Shopping Day!
