RUTHERFORD COUNTY, TN - Flu season is ramping up, and it’s important for everyone, especially health care professionals, to not only get the flu vaccine but also educate patients about what to expect.
The current flu season has started later and more gradually than last year, according to William Schaffner, MD, professor of Preventive Medicine at Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC), although cases are expected to begin increasing in November before falling off in March.
