'It's Never Late' to poke Flu Vaccination; County Health Council Forces to U.S citizens.
Winter and Flu season commences leading to several chronic diseases for the people in America. Flu is a common viral infection that threatens life when infection outruns the normal stage.
The mortality rate of flu among American people is quite higher. Nearly 40,000 people die from the cruelty of flu infections every flu season. The death rate is due to the ignorance of the public to take precautions about the flu epidemic.
The flu season will start early this year compared to the previous year, predicts the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention.
Federal Health officials recommend the people of America to jab the flu vaccine, almost every year. Now the council itself advising the public to get vaccinated as soon as possible to reduce the chronic attainment of the disease. It also forces pregnant women, people above 65 years, and the patients underlying flu symptoms to get vaccinated immediately.
Flu may become chronic age to age, causing asthma, pneumonia, heart disease, liver disorders, and much more. This chronic health disorder could be reduced by vaccination, says Schaffner.
Some pregnant women fear that flu vaccine is unsafety for mother and baby, says Dr.Alicia Fry, chief of the epidemiology and prevention branch of the CDC’s Influenza Division. Dr. Fry clears the myth with evidence stating that vaccination for pregnant women may help the fetus to develop antibodies inside the womb before birth. CDC believes that this kind of pre-birth flu shot will help the newborn defeat the flu in its early stages of growth without vaccination.
Missoula City-County Health Department says it’s never late to jab the flu vaccine before October 31. If not vaccinated on the date, it has made available for the people above 18 years at their local doctors’ office. The ultimate goal of the County department is to get shot the vaccine early or late and recommends to avoid chronic severities.
