"  With this season&amp;#039;s first nor&amp;#039;easter about to hit, I thought I&amp;#039;d take this moment to encourage everyone to get their seasonal flu shot. Experts can&amp;#039;t emphasize the importance of it enough this season, particularly with the added threat of the H1N1 virus. I know people are hesitant for a variety of reasons\u2014like they think they&amp;#039;ll get sick from the vaccine\u2014but many of those are just not true. (You may get side effects from the shot that seem like the flu, but there&amp;#039;s no way you can get the flu from the shot. It contains a killed version of the virus). And get your kids vaccinated too! People don&amp;#039;t realize how bad the actual flu is. In many cases, when someone says they&amp;#039;ve had the flu, they&amp;#039;ve just really had a bad cold. Young kids in particular are at risk for being hospitalized or even dying from flu complications. So get vaccinated and stay informed with our flu info at womansday.com/flu. -Amy Brightfield, Health Director "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
