If you missed the early fall push for flu and COVID-19 vaccines, it’s not too late.
Health officials say it’s important to get vaccinated ahead of the holidays, when respiratory bugs tend to spread with travel and indoor celebrations.
Those viruses haven’t caused much trouble so far this fall. But COVID-19 tends to jump in the winter months, a rise that usually starts around Thanksgiving and peaks in January.
And that coincides with flu season, which tends to start in November or December and peak in January or February.
