Medical Alert

It's important to know that these 2 months are the best ones to take the Flu Vaccine (VACCIGRIPPE).
It's important to know that already all the extreme ages ( childs & olds ) are obligate candidates to take the vaccine yearly in this season.
And every patient who has a chronic disease (like diabetes, hepatitis, Chronic Obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma...) or the ones who are immunosuppressed (like HIV, Cancer patients, & the ones who are under immunosuppressive therapy) are also obligate candidates for vaccination.
All healthcare workers are obligate candidates for this vaccination.
And as everyone of us is surrounded by olds, childs, sick people so it is imperative for everyone to take this vaccine to not be the cause of spread of an infection.
To remember that the avian Flu ( influenza Al Toyour ) is a dangerous disease circulating the globe very easily with many birds even if they are not sick... the entry of this virus to our country can be silent, but will lead for sure to a very severe epidemic... so please leave all the wild traveling birds cross our skies without killing them to not transmit this virus easily...
Remember, flu vaccine don't protect you against this strain of virus... "but it may help"...
There is No real vaccine for it yet...
And also remember, Flu vaccine reduce in a very good percentage (that is not 100%) flu attacks per year.
So, contact your doctor very soon & take the vaccine...
