November 18-24 is U.S. Antibiotic Awareness Week (USAAW). Antibiotics are effective in treating bacterial infections, however, they are not useful against viral infections such as the common cold or flu. It is essential to enhance the proper use of antibiotics by following prescription instructions and completing the entire treatment course, as antimicrobial resistance (AMR) arises when microbes gain the capacity to overcome medications, resulting in heightened difficulty in treating infections. Using antibiotics and anti-fungals only when absolutely needed plays a key role in fighting AMR, minimizing adverse reactions, and preserving the effectiveness of these vital drugs for future use.

You can still get the shot before the holidays and be protected. It takes about two weeks after getting the shot for your body to build up protection, so don't wait until the last minute. Get your flu shot now so you're ready for Thanksgiving and other winter holidays.

Did you know that getting a flu shot late in the season can still offer you great protection?

Flu season lasts until May, and late vaccination is better than skipping it altogether!

Here are some reasons to roll up your sleeve:

- Protection: The flu virus can linger through spring. Vaccination helps protect you!
- Reduced Severity: A late flu shot can lessen the symptoms and significantly lower hospitalization risks if you catch the flu.
- High-Risk Groups: It’s crucial for those with chronic conditions, young children, and seniors.

Don’t wait! Your health is worth it. Let’s face flu season together! Most pharmacies provide both flu and Covid vaccinations.

Initially known as Armistice Day on November 11, 1919, to mark the conclusion of World War I, Veterans Day officially became a recognized holiday in 1938. In 1954, its name was changed to Veterans Day in recognition of all American veterans from various wars, paying tribute to the sacrifices made by veterans of World War II and the Korean War. Join us in honoring all veterans on this important day.
