Together We Can Fight the Flu
It’s flu season again – let’s stop the spread together.
There are an estimated 1 billion cases of seasonal flu every year.1 3 to 5 million of those cases are severe and between 290,000 and 650,000 lead to flu-related respiratory deaths.2
Seasonal flu is highly contagious, but also preventable.3
Understanding how to prevent infection, act fast to treat symptoms and optimise recovery is key to minimising complications.
Theraflu Fight the Flu patient resources aim to empower healthcare professionals and patients alike in the fight against flu.
They include information on prevention, early diagnosis, treatment and recovery from seasonal flu.
