It’s that time of year again. Summer is slowly transitioning to fall, which means it’s time to think about apple picking, cooking hearty soups, and getting your annual flu shot. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommend that everyone above the age of 6 months get an annual flu shot. The ideal time to get your flu shots is between September and October.
