COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) is a disease caused by a virus called SARS-CoV-2. It can be very contagious and spreads quickly. COVID-19 most often causes respiratory symptoms that can feel much like a cold, the flu, or pneumonia. Find out more on staying up to date with your COVID-19 vaccine.
Influenza or “the Flu” is a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses that infect the nose, throat, and the lungs. Influenza can cause mild to severe illness, leading to hospitalizations and at times can lead to death. Those who are younger, older, and unvaccinated are at elevated risk. Find out if and when a flu vaccine is right for you.
RSV (Respiratory syncytial virus) is a highly contagious respiratory virus that typically causes cold-like symptoms. However, RSV can cause serious infections in infants and older adults. Vaccinations are available for those older than 60 years.
