So Sorry

My husband and I have been passing a stubborn cold between us for the last week or so. The kind of cold that makes you want to sleep the minute you finish work until the alarm goes off the next morning. Having said that I hope to be back by Monday. Wish me luck!!!!

We are officially a quarter of the way through the 24-week flu season in Canada. Flu season typically runs from November and continues to April. Although 3 strains of Influenza A, B, and C. These strains will mutate over time creating sub strains making the types of flu you can catch almost infinite. Canadian vaccinations this year offer coverage for Influenza A and Influenza B.


Each year an estimated 10-20% of the population catch influenza according to Canadian Public Health. That’s 3.5 million to 7 million people infected each year. Out of that portion of the population 12,200 hospitalizations related to influenza and approximately 3,500 deaths attributable to influenza occur.
