For 13 years, Lovelace Health System has worked with schools to promote the Don’t Bug Me flu awareness and prevention campaign. This partnership between local elementary schools and Lovelace is designed to teach healthy lifestyle habits to young students to help them avoid getting or spreading the flu and other communicable diseases, including COVID-19. By following the guidelines and messages set forth in the Don’t Bug Me campaign, you can help stop the flu & coronavirus, too! You can download Don’t Bug Me materials here for free.
The best protection against the flu is an annual flu vaccine. It is recommended for everyone age six months and older. To schedule your flu shot call 505.727.2727 in Albuquerque or 575.627.4200 in Roswell.
