Flu Season Prep in UAE | Dubai News

Flu season’s here in the UAE — and health officials are urging everyone 6 months and older to get vaccinated ASAP. It takes about two weeks for your body to build protection, so don’t wait. The Ministry of Health and Prevention’s “Protect Yourself… Protect Your Community” campaign is targeting high-risk groups like the elderly, pregnant women, kids, and those with chronic conditions — but it’s open to all. Flu strains change yearly, so annual shots are essential. Beyond vaccines, wash hands often, cover coughs and sneezes, keep spaces ventilated, and stay home if you’re sick — especially if you’re in a vulnerable group. Prevention beats cure: vaccinate, hydrate, rest, and protect your community. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
