Collin County Reminds You Early Detection is Key Against the Flu
Collin County Healthcare Services wants to remind residents that early detection and treatment for the flu is important to avoid more serious complications. The County urges anyone exhibiting flu-like symptoms to seek immediate treatment. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has tips and precautions you and your family can take to stay healthy this flu season.

The County Health Care Department is completely out of adult flu vaccine and has a very short supply of children's vaccine. However, many local doctor's offices and pharmacies may still have the vaccine available.
