Flu shot clinics take aim at illness this season Halton Region Health Department has opened its flu shot clinics to prepare people for winter. Free flu shots are offered every year to Ontarians six months of age and older. The flu can be spread from infected persons through coughing, sneezing, touching surfaces ­ such as toys, doorknobs, utensils, or unwashed hands ­ and then touching the eyes or nose. It is recommended that people of all ages get the vaccine, but those at particular risk include people aged 65 years or older, children aged six months to 23 months, pregnant women, those in nursing homes and chronic care homes, and adults and children with chronic medical conditions. To reduce the risk, people are also advised to take additional precautions, including: · Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 15 seconds. · Keep an alcohol-based hand sanitizer handy at work, home and in your car. · Cough and sneeze into your sleeve or a tissue, not your hand. Dispose of tissues immediately. · Clean and disinfect commonly touched surfaces and items.
