The Maryland Department of Health & Mental Hygiene has recommended that influenza vaccinations be offered to all hospital staff and patients through Saturday, May 23. This recommendation is due to the increase in influenza cases throughout the state.
As of March 18, there have been 94 confirmed cases of influenza here at Sinai Hospital, most of which were pediatric cases.
It's not to late to get the flu shot. Protect yourself and your family by calling your primary care doctor today. Need help finding a physician? Baltimore residents in need of an internist can consult our physician finder by clicking here.
