Flu season has arrived, and health officials in Cook County are emphasizing the importance of getting vaccinated against the flu and COVID-19.
Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle joined a panel of physicians to discuss the significance of getting updated flu and COVID vaccines. Doctors emphasize that these shots can help prevent serious complications, hospitalizations, and even deaths.
