Now that fall is here, respiratory illnesses are becoming more common.
U of M Dr. Katherine Montag Schafer says now is the time to get vaccinated against those illnesses…
“…many things, vaccines take a little bit of time to start working to prime the immune system. So we generally recommend getting those vaccines done by the end of October so we can give it ample time before those viruses are more prominent in our communities.”
Schafer says vaccines are still the safest way to fight against respiratory illnesses.
