Autumn’s Yearly Rite of Passage
The start of the fall season normally ushers in the normal yearly flu vaccine season.
Beginning October and November most people will traditionally be flocking to their doctor’s clinics and pharmacies to get their yearly flu shots.Some will wait to see if flu viruses are more severe or more prevalent than usual until they get their shots. Others just do not do shots at all.
If the viral infection is particularly bad then many people will still be getting their shots by December and even January of the next year.
