Durham – Southpoint, NC, Walk-In Flu Shots

Get Protection for the Upcoming Flu Season

Contracting the flu, or this year’s strain of it, can have a significant impact on your overall health. Even if you’ve had it in the past, this virus evolves so rapidly that you could still catch it again. From a high fever to sore throat to fatigue, the flu can wreak havoc on your body and result in severe complications after the fact. So it’s vital that you take the necessary precautions now to protect yourself. The flu can spread rapidly, but by getting a walk-in flu shot from your local clinic, you can ensure you stay healthy. Learn more about how AFC Urgent Care can help with this.

Why Get a Flu Shot?

Flu shots are a great way to protect yourself against flu strains that are likely to be prevalent this year. By receiving the most current vaccine, you’re helping your body develop antibodies that can fight off infection should you come in contact with the virus. Even if you do contract the flu following the shot, your experience will be significantly lessened in severity and shortened in duration. This will allow you to get through flu season more comfortably and with a diminished impact on your lifestyle or family.

Urgent care flu shots only take a few seconds to administer, and they can keep you and your family from missing school or work due to illness. They can also protect against some of the more dangerous side effects of the flu, including internal inflammation and muscle decay. Because of this, it’s always a good idea to get one of these injections just in case—especially if you’re going to be traveling.
