Free flu shots available again this season

We’re approaching flu shot season.

Doctors, Pharmacies and Public Health Units will be providing free flu shots to people at high risk of complications from influenza, their close contacts, and many other eligible groups again this season.

Hoyano notes that the flu causes more deaths than any other vaccine-preventable illness in Canada.
