With the onset of the first big storm of the season here in California, we are all reminded that winter is on the way. Here come runny noses, holiday hugs and spreading the flu bug?! It is time to act pro-actively and protect ourselves, while not becoming neurotic… Act preventatively: hand washing, adequate rest and nutrition and yes, a flu shot! Locally, both Dr. Laurie Green, OB/Gyn and Dr. Pete Contini, Pediatrician say yes-pregnant women and infants over 6 months need to receive the seasonal flu vaccine as well as the H1N1 vaccine.
