In the spirit of prevention, we would like to inform you that it is that time of the year again.

Our Flu vaccine campaign for the 2017-2018 season starts on: November 1, 2017 by appointment.

The influenza vaccine can prevent the Flu and its complications. The viruses that cause influenza change their composition from year to year. As a result, the vaccine composition is updated yearly to make sure that it offers the best protection.

The best time to get the Influenza vaccine is in November and December.

The vaccine usually protects most people against Influenza. People who do get the Flu even though they have been vaccinated often have milder symptoms than those who did not get the vaccine. The vaccine is not effective against viruses that cause colds. Protection against influenza takes about 2 weeks to develop after you receive the vaccination. The vaccine provides protection for up to 12 months. This means immunization is required each year.

Congratulations
on choosing to protect yourself and those around you from the Flu this season.

Please call us at 514-731-2491 to book your appointment. Looking forward to seeing you!
