Health starts with taking care of yourself!

With the cold and flu season here, it is especially important to remember prevention and not to neglect simple protective measures. But there are other threats that everyone should be aware of too.

These were the topics of today’s meeting at the Centre. Elizaveta Denisenya and Vladislav Savko, specialists from the Centre for Hygiene and Epidemiology of Partizansky District, spoke to the team about preventing flu and acute respiratory viral infections (ARVI). They stressed how important vaccination is. The Centre’s own team shows how relevant this is: just a few days ago, its staff had their flu vaccinations.

The specialists also talked about rabies. They reminded everyone of the precautions to take around animals and of the importance of seeking medical help promptly after a bite

The advice we received is another reason to pay closer attention to our health and not to put off prevention.
