WHAT IS INFLUENZA (FLU)
Influenza (or flu) is a viral infec-
tion of the nose, throat, bronchial
tubes, and lungs that can make
someone of any age ill. Usually
the flu occurs in the United Sates
from about November to April. 11
you get the flu, you usually have
fever, chills, cough, and soreness
and aching in your back, arms,
and legs. Although most people
arc ill for only a few days, some
persons have a much more seri-
ous illness and may need to go to
the hospital. On average, thou-
sands of people die each year in
the United States from the flu or
related complications.
WHO SHOULD GET INFLU-
ENZA VACCINE?
Because influenza is usually not
life threatening in healthy indi-
viduals and most people recover
fully, health officials emphasize
the use of vaccine for the elderly
and people with other health
problems which make these indi-
viduals more likely to be seriously
ill or to die from the flu or its
complications. For example,
people who after even light exer-
cise become short of breath due
to diseases affecting their heart or
lungs, and people who have low'
resistance to infections, are likely
to be more seriously affected by
the flu. Thus, the following groups
arc at increased risk for serious
illness with the flu and should
receive vaccine:
