Each year during flu season, at least one in every 20 people in the U.S. will come down with influenza or flu. Some years, that number can be as high as one in every five. For most of us, getting the flu means several days of feeling pretty miserable. Headaches, body aches, fever, chills, fatigue, and exhaustion are all part of the disease running its course. But then most people recover on their own. The flu is caused by influenza viruses that are highly contagious. Fortunately, there are ways to protect you against seasonal flu, and the primary way to prevent it is to get an annual vaccination.
