Flu, RSV, COVID and other seasonal viruses return to the forefront as fall approaches, but who should get vaccinated and how can you tell the illnesses apart? In the latest episode of Thompson On-Air, host Dave Carro talks with Stacey Gibbs, Thompson Health’s director of infection prevention, and Daniel Bentz, the clinical pharmacist who manages Thompson’s two outpatient pharmacies. They discuss what experts expect from the upcoming respiratory virus season, who faces the greatest risk of serious illness, current vaccine recommendations and common misconceptions surrounding flu, RSV and COVID. The conversation also covers symptoms to watch for and warning signs that could mean it’s time to seek medical care.
