The new campaign for seasonal influenza vaccination was launched last week under the theme "Influenza: to avoid hospitalization, go for vaccination". Even in the sun, the flu is easily transmitted.
"Vaccination is the simplest and most effective way to protect yourself and others against this disease," said Marisol Touraine, Minister of Health, on the occasion of the presentation of this campaign. Vaccination is recommended for the most fragile people. In Saint-Martin, 2.870 consultations for flu syndrome were recorded last May, at the end of the epidemic, by the health watch institute (InVS). Each year, the flu affects more than two million French people. Last year, more than 3000 hospitalizations were reported by emergency departments.
