๐ซโ๏ธ Stay Healthy This Respiratory Season! โ๏ธ๐ซ
As winter continues, illnesses like flu, COVID-19, and RSV are on the rise in our community. While these viruses can spread easily, simple everyday steps can help protect you and your loved ones.
โ๏ธ Get vaccinated โ Stay up to date on your flu and COVID-19 vaccines. Ask your healthcare provider if RSV or pneumococcal vaccines are right for you, especially if youโre 60+, pregnant, or managing a chronic condition.
โ๏ธ Wash your hands often โ Soap and water work best; hand sanitizer (60% alcohol or more) is a good backup.
โ๏ธ Stay home when sick โ Rest, recover, and help stop the spread.
โ๏ธ Cover coughs and sneezes โ Use a tissue or your elbow.
โ๏ธ Improve indoor air quality โ Good ventilation helps reduce germs indoors.
โ๏ธ Consider a mask โ Especially in crowded indoor spaces or if youโre at higher risk.
By taking these small steps, we can help keep our community healthy and safe all winter long. ๐
