City of Rehoboth Beach issued the following announcement on Oct. 28.
With the spread of COVID-19 in 2020, it is now more important than ever to make sure you and your family have the annual flu shot.
Flu shots can prevent the flu. For those who get the flu shot and still get the flu, their illness is much less severe and often lasts for fewer days. Did you know that the flu shot prevents millions of illnesses every year in the United States? Or that having a flu shot prevents thousands of hospitalizations each year?
The flu shot reduces the risk for yourself and your family. It means that instead of getting so sick you end up in the hospital, that you can recuperate at home. And, during this time of COVID-19 that can save you and your family a lot of worry and concern.
By getting the flu shot, you can prevent the spread of flu in our community.
