Roswell Urgent Care is pleased to announce affordable flu shots for patients four years of age and older. The urgent care clinic offers the shots seven days a week for $25 as part of its Keeping the Well in RoswellTM program to promote better health.

Since the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends an annual flu vaccination for everyone aged six months and older, Roswell Urgent Care encourages patients to get the shot as soon as it becomes available. The flu shot works by introducing dead or damaged viruses into the body to initiate an immune response without getting the individual sick. After that, the body is able to develop the proper antibodies to form immunity against the virus.

The best lines of defense against the flu are preparedness and prevention, which means it’s best to get the vaccine before the onset of flu season. Young children under four years of age and people over 65 are the two most vulnerable age groups for facing flu-related complications, including hospitalizations and death.

Getting a flu vaccine not only protects an individual from illness, but their families, friends and community as well. Besides getting the vaccine, people should cover their nose and mouth with a tissue when they sneeze, practice good hygiene, try to avoid contact with sick individuals and stay home if experiencing flu-like symptoms, among others.
