NORFOLK, Va. — With the cold weather and indoor holiday gatherings comes the annual influx of viral respiratory illnesses like COVID, flu, and RSV.
And then comes the all-important question: Do I need to get a vaccine for one of these? All of them?
In this month's episode of the Healthy Dude podcast, Kurt sits down with Dr. Michael Hooper, the chief medical officer for Sentara Health and asks the tough questions about vaccines.
Are they effective? Will they help prevent me from getting sick? What if I get a vaccine and I still get sick?
Hooper understands that decisions about vaccines are up to each individual and their family.
