Call your RAHS health center for an appointment to get your flu vaccine

It's time to get your flu and COVID vaccines! Make a plan to visit your local pharmacy or health care provider, or call us at 734-544-6700 if you don't have a regular source of care.

“Vaccines are our best tool for preventing serious illnesses and hospitalizations in our community,” says Juan Luis Marquez, MD, MPH, WCHD medical director.

“Flu shots and updated 2025-26 COVID-19 vaccines are recommended for everyone 6 months and older.”

Seasonal respiratory illnesses continue to be a serious public health threat, especially for older adults and young children:

➡️ Our last flu season was severe: 426 residents were hospitalized, and there were 27 flu-associated deaths, including one child.

➡️ From Feb '24 to Feb '25, 582 residents were hospitalized with COVID and 54 residents died from confirmed or probable COVID.

➡️ 173 residents were hospitalized for RSV during the 2024-25 RSV season. Most of these hospitalizations were in children under 5 years old (38%) and adults 65 years old and older (37%). 8 adults died from RSV.

“Vaccines can make you less likely to get really sick from a respiratory virus,” continues Marquez.

“Vaccines are especially important for protecting our more vulnerable community members, including babies and young children, older adults, and people with chronic health conditions.”
