Wild to Mild: Get your respiratory virus vaccines at Callen-Lorde today!

The flu. COVID-19. RSV. 

You might think that these illnesses are similar to an annoying common cold. But don’t be fooled — their symptoms can be seriously wild! 

Between high fevers, severe congestion, body aches and trouble breathing, all three respiratory viruses can create serious illness, especially for elders or people with compromised immune systems. While every respiratory illness season is different, the New York City Department of Health reports that thousands of New Yorkers have to go to their provider, get hospitalized, or even die because of these illnesses every year.  

This virus season, you have the power to change that. 

Callen-Lorde offers vaccines for the flu, COVID-19 and RSV that can take these illnesses from wild to mild. Vaccines can’t completely prevent illness, but they’ll protect you from serious symptoms and prevent hospitalization and death. 

And vaccines aren’t just about protecting yourself—they’re also about protecting your community. When one person gets vaccinated, it helps shield unvaccinated people from these viruses, making a positive difference for the entire community.  

Do your part for your people this year by coming to Callen-Lorde. We’ll help you take the flu, COVID-19 and RSV from wild to mild while ensuring your community stays safe. Ask you provider or our front desk staff about vaccines and your eligibility. Together, we can combat respiratory virus season.
