What is the flu?

The flu is a respiratory infection that is highly contagious and caused by the influenza virus. Symptoms are typically mild but can be severe in some cases. 

Common symptoms include:

· Fever or chills

· Headaches and muscle aches

· Runny or stuffy nose

· Coughing

· Tiredness

· Sore throat

· Severe respiratory complications in some patients

Flu infection is especially dangerous for those at high-risk for complications, such as young children, seniors, and those with chronic health conditions or a weakened immune system. It’s important that high-risk individuals book a Flu vaccination online in Earlsfieldbefore flu season starts.
