With flu season approaching, the Northern Health Region is encouraging residents to get vaccinated before respiratory viruses start spreading.

Medical Officer of Health Dr. Natalie Casaclang says getting your shot early gives your body time to build protection.
 

Vaccines will be available through pharmacies, doctors’ offices and public health. For help finding a provider, call 1-844-626-8222.
