Twindemic precautions: flattening the flu curve

Ralph Riviello, MD, MS, FACEP, chair of emergency medicine at °®ÎÛ´«Ã½ and University Hospital, discusses how both organizations are preparing for flu season in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.

One of the easiest ways to prepare is by getting your flu shot this season. 

The flu vaccine can reduce symptoms that could be confused with COVID-19. The flu vaccine can also decrease the severity of the illness, reduce hospitalizations, protect pregnant women and save lives of children and adults.

Flu shots are available at every °®ÎÛ´«Ã½ primary care location in San Antonio and the hill country.
