Healthy Habits to Stay Well 

In addition to getting the flu shot, you can help keep yourself and others healthy by:

  • Covering coughs and sneezes
  • Avoiding touching your eyes, nose, and mouth
  • Washing your hands often
  • Staying home if you feel unwell

Other healthy habits to support your immune system include:

  • Avoiding close contact with people who are sick
  • Getting plenty of sleep
  • Eating a balanced diet with lots of vegetables and fruits
  • Drinking lots of fluids
  • Exercising regularly
  • Managing your stress

Not a Lakehead Student, Staff, or Faculty?

Non-Lakehead community members can get their flu shots through their health care providers or local pharmacies. If you don't have an Ontario health card, you can still receive the flu shot at participating pharmacies.
