During the 2016-2017 flu season, Lane County saw an alarming prevalence of flu throughout the county and as a result, double-digit deaths attributed to influenza. Getting an annual flu vac- cine, and getting it early in the season, is the first and best way to protect yourself, your fami- ly, and your community from the flu.

However, getting vaccinated later can still be beneficial and vaccination should continue to be offered throughout the flu season, even into January or later. Some flu shots protect against three flu viruses (Trivalent) and some protect against four flu viruses (Quadrivalent) and both are currently available at the Lane County Communicable Disease Clinic as well as a number of pharmacies through- out Lane County. This season, only injectable flu vaccines (flu shots) are rec- ommended as the use of the nasal spray flu vaccine (LAIV) was not reccomended for the 2017-8 season. The composition of U.S. flu vaccines is reviewed annually and updated as needed to match circulating flu viruses. Flu vaccines protect against the three or four viruses (depending on vaccine) that research suggests will be most 7:00 PM 1:20 PM THE LEGO NINJAGO MOVIE PG 100 MIN – From Lego & Lego Batman makers 4:25 PM The battle for Ninjago City calls to action young 6:40 PM Master Builder Lloyd, aka the Green Ninja, along 8:55 PM with his friends, who are all secret ninja warriors.

In 2017, a study from the American Academy of Pediatrics was the first of its kind to show that flu vaccina- tion also significantly reduced a child’s risk of dying from influenza. “We know pretty clearly that the more people who get vacci- nated, the more people will be protected from flu, including older people, very young chil- dren, pregnant women and peo- ple with certain long-term health conditions who are more vulnerable to serious flu com- plications,” said Lane County Health Officer, Dr. Patrick Luedtke. While “Flu Season” general- ly lasts from early fall through early spring, it takes about two weeks after vaccination for antibodies to develop in the body that protect against flu, so LCPH is recommending com- munity members make plans to get vaccinated early, before flu season begins so they will have immunity once the season is in 6:00 PM 105 MIN Box Office opens 30 min. prior to 1 st Film | 1930 HWY 101 | www.citylightscinemas.com | Times: 541-305-0014 Open Monday - Friday 8am-5pm 4515 Hwy. 101 N., Florence 541- 997-5049 AJ and Megan Shervin, Owners
