Each flu season is different because the flu virus is constantly changing. Influenza can cause serious illness and even death. Even healthy people can get very sick and spread the flu to others.<br \/>\n<br \/><i>So, what can you do to protect yourself and your loved ones from getting the seasonal flu or a different virus?<\/i> Your best defense against the seasonal flu is to get a yearly flu shot. Also, keep your hands clean by frequently washing them with soap and water or by using a hand sanitizer. And, don\u2019t forget to get plenty of rest and eat healthy to boost your immune system.&#8221;<\/br><br \/>\n<i>A public service reminder from Laurie Gianturco, M.D., Vice President &amp; Chief Medical<\/i> Officer<\/br><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>To schedule a flu clinic at your place of employment, contact any of these participating partners:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Big Y<br \/>\n<\/strong>Samantha Jacobs<br \/>\n413-504-4491<br \/>\nsjacobs@bigy.com<br \/>\nMinimum of 20 employees<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/hnetalk.com\/employer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Big-Y-Worksite-Flu-Clinics-in-partnership-with-HNE-2015.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Big Y Flu Flu Clinic Information<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Rite Aid<br \/>\n<\/strong>Jerry Stanczak (for pharmacy on Cooley Street, Springfield)<br \/>\n413-783-4451 (store)<br \/>\n413-222-5788 (cell)<br \/>\nTaylor-Marie McDonald<br \/>\ntaylor-marie.l.mcdonald@riteaid.com<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong>Minimum of 15 employees<strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/hnetalk.com\/employer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Rite-Aid-Screening-Form-2015.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Rite Aid Flu Clinic Information<\/a> &amp; <a href=\"http:\/\/hnetalk.com\/employer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Rite-Aid-talking-points.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Talking Points<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Louis &amp; Clark<\/strong><br \/>\nDiane Cordeiro<br \/>\n413-285-8518<br \/>\ndcordeiro@lcdrug.com<br \/>\nMinimum of 20-25 employees<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Health New England is pleased to announce that we have again\u00a0partnered with Big Y, Rite Aid, and Louis &amp; Clark\u00a0offer flu clinics at your place of employment for your employees.
