H1N1 (the “swine flu”) is getting all the headlines this year, but no one expects the seasonal flu to take the year off. Get good, solid information for protecting yourself and your family from all types of flu at the Civista Health Library. You can also find tips about avoiding and dealing with the Common Cold there as well.

Civista recommends getting flu shots before the flu season begins. But remember, the normal flu vaccine will not protect against H1N1; a special H1N1 vaccine is necessary. Educate yourself on how to take sensible precautions to protect yourself and your family this cold and flu season.
