The Prince George’s County Health Department encourages all residents to get vaccinated for the flu. It is a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses. It can cause mild to severe illness. Serious outcomes of flu infection can result in hospitalization
or death. Some people, such as older people, young children, and people with certain health conditions, are at high risk of serious flu complications. People who have the flu often feel some or all of these signs and symptoms that usually start suddenly, not
gradually:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
