In a short 12 days, Halloween 2016 will be upon us! Costumes and candy; what more can a kid ask for?

Consequently, there may be more lurking in the shadows this month…

Hence, as your kids are out and about in the neighborhood collecting their treats, they may be collecting something else…the flu!

The cold weather and the exchanging of candy can take a toll on your child’s health which, as a result, can make them more susceptible to the virus.

Check that your kids are up to date with their flu shots rather than making them suffer in bed on the biggest candy collecting day of the month. Give them a fighting chance to collect as many goodies as they can, because when else can a kid fill up a pillow case with sweets?

Flu shots are $25 each, or we can bill your insurance if we are in network providers.

MD Today has two locations, in Scripps Ranch and Carmel Valley. Walk ins are welcome.
