Health Experts Advise Timely Flu Vaccination Ahead of Monsoon SeasonPreviousNext

With the monsoon season approaching, health experts, including Dr. Amol Jaybhaye of Narayana Health SRCC Children's Hospital, urge timely influenza vaccination to reduce flu infections and complications. The flu can cause serious issues, especially in children, older adults, pregnant women, and immunocompromised individuals. Experts recommend getting the flu shot at least 15 days before monsoon onset to allow antibody development, as influenza viruses mutate annually, necessitating yearly vaccination.
