Links to Current topics The influenza virus (flu) is increasing nationally and in NH. To protect yourselves, ask your physician for a flu vaccine if you have not already received one this year. IT IS NOT TOO LATE TO GET THE FLU VACCINE. The vaccine can still provide protection as the flu virus can circulate as late as May. It is also always important to wash your hands frequently, but particularly after using tissues, cover your mouth when you cough and stay home and recuperate if you are experiencing flu like symptoms.
