Dr. Gerberding Flu Quotations

We know the virus is changing. We're watching little mutations occur all the time -- that's what flu viruses do.

Currently, fewer than half of health care workers get vaccinated for flu each year. When people who work in hospitals and health care facilities don't get vaccinated, they can pose a serious risk to their patients.

The lesson here is that flu constantly evolves, and we are always just one mutation away from a resistant virus.
