While most people with the flu get better on their own, sometimes influenza and its complications can be life threatening. Dr. Derrick Gray will tell us about ways we can protect ourselves from the flu virus and, if we do get the flu, when we should see a doctor. Learn about symptoms, testing, treatment, and vaccines at this presentation.
This program is free and open to the public. No registration required.
