Wanna make $5??

GET YOUR FLU SHOT!!! The Student Health Center is offering to pay YOU $5 for getting your flu shot. You can choose to keep the money or donate it to a local charity.

But WHY should I get one? 

-It’s flu season!

-Influenza is a respiratory illness contracted through viruses that are spread when people cough, sneeze or talk (USA Today College)

-Symptoms of the flu can last up to a week and include fever, sore throat, headaches, cough, aches, congestion and fatigue (AKA you will miss class and get super duper behind and stressed)

-The flu shot is the most effective method to protect against this virus and its related complications.

-Even healthy people can get very sick from the flu and spread it to others.
