Studies show that flu vaccine prevents millions of illnesses and flu-related doctor's visits each year. For example, during 2019-2020, the last flu season prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, flu vaccination prevented an estimated 7 million influenza illnesses, 3 million influenza-associated medical visits, 100,000 influenza-associated hospitalizations, and 7,000 influenza-associated deaths.

Flu shots, also known as influenza vaccines, help protect against the flu by introducing a small, harmless piece of the flu virus or a weakened form of the virus to your body. This triggers your immune system to produce antibodies that recognize and fight the flu virus, preparing your body to defend itself against future infections. Here's how it works:

1. *Exposure to the vaccine*: When you get a flu shot, you're exposed to a flu virus strain that's been inactivated or weakened.
2. *Immune response*: Your immune system recognizes the vaccine as foreign and mounts an immune response, producing antibodies specifically designed to fight the flu virus.
3. *Antibody production*: These antibodies stay in your system, ready to recognize and attack the flu virus if you're exposed to it in the future.
4. *Protection*: By having these antibodies, you're less likely to get infected with the flu or, if you do get infected, the symptoms are typically milder.

Flu shots are updated annually to protect against the most common flu strains predicted for the upcoming season. While no vaccine is 100% effective, flu shots significantly reduce your risk of getting the flu and its complications, especially for high-risk groups like the elderly, young children, and people with certain health conditions.

PLAN OF TRAVELING via Air ABROAD OR LOCALLY?
Get yourself Vaccinated first with Flu Shots!

According to World Health Organization
"Seasonal influenza spreads easily, with rapid transmission in enclosed and crowded areas" as the possible case related to the sudden passing of a famous Taiwanese actress where the reported cause was influenza-induced pneumonia.

This can be a mild, severe, or potentially life-threatening acute respiratory infection.

When an infected person coughs or sneezes, droplets containing viruses (infectious droplets) are dispersed into the air and can infect persons in close proximity.

Vaccination is the best way to prevent influenza!

Safe and effective vaccines have been used for more than 60 years. Immunity from vaccination goes away over time so annual vaccination is recommended to protect against influenza.
