Even Healthy Kids Need Flu Shots

"Children have an increased risk of contracting the flu and developing dangerous complications such as pneumonia and bronchitis. Fortunately, the chances of catching the flu can be significantly reduced by getting vaccinated at a reputable Union City walk-in clinic. The study’s findings confirm that “prevention is the best strategy, and the best strategy we have is vaccination,” according to the report’s lead author, CDC medical officer Karen Wong. Many Union City urgent care centers, such as U.S. HealthWorks Medical Group facilities, continue to offer flu vaccination to patients even in the middle of flu season. The vaccine typically takes two weeks to work. With the flu season set to peak in December and January, now is the best time to get you and your child vaccinated."
