ARKANSAS (KFSM) — Flu season has started, and health departments throughout the area will be holding mass flu clinics over the next several weeks.
The Benton County Health Department held a flue clinic on Friday (Oct. 14) at the Rogers Activity Center.
Loy Bailey, an administrator, said the flu shot is the best way to protect yourself against the virus. Plus the vaccine should lesson the symptoms if you do happen to get the flu.
