🧠 Wild Flu Fact!
Did you know? A single person with the flu can infect many others before they even realise they’re sick — because people can spread the flu about 24 hours before symptoms even start! 🤧🦠
That’s one reason the flu season spreads so quickly every year!
Influenza (flu) can spread quickly during the colder months and may lead to serious illness, especially for young children, older adults, pregnant women, and those with chronic health conditions.
💡 Did you know? The flu virus changes every year — which is why a new flu vaccine is developed annually to help protect against the most common circulating strains.
✅ Reduce your risk by:
• Getting your annual flu vaccination
• Washing hands regularly
• Covering coughs and sneezes
• Staying home when unwell
• Wearing a mask if experiencing symptoms
Common flu symptoms may include:
🤒 Fever
😷 Cough & sore throat
🤕 Body aches
😴 Fatigue
