Recently on the RNJ Morning Program, Morning Mike spoke with two people who take a real interest in protecting people from the flu. Dr. Leonard Friedland is the Vice-President and Director of Scientific Affairs and Public Health for Vaccines North America at GSK, and with Serese Marotta, the Chief Operating Officer of the nonprofit Families Fighting Flu joined Morning Mike to talk about protecting yourself and your family this winter. Serese understands firsthand how serious the flu can be, losing her five year-old son, Joseph, in 2009 to the flu. Dr. Friedland stressed the importance of protecting yourself from the flu, primarily by getting a flu shot. He recommended the website of the U.S. government’s Center for Disease Control (cdc.gov/flu). You can also find helpful information on the website for Families Fighting Flu.
