It’s prime time for a $0 flu vaccine

The flu is sneaky. It can invade your body undetected, mask itself from the immune system, and keep up its charade until you feel that tickle in the back of your throat and body aches. Fast forward a few hours and you also may develop fever, chills, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, headache, fatigue, vomiting, or diarrhea.
