🔥✨ Circle up around the campfire…
As the nights get cooler and flu season approaches, there’s one thing that can help keep our whole circle stronger: vaccinations.
For those living with bronchiectasis or NTM, vaccines like the flu, pneumonia, COVID-19, and RSV are extra layers of protection — like adding logs to the fire so it doesn’t burn out. They can’t prevent every illness, but they can help lessen the risk of flare-ups, infections, or complications.
And caregivers — you’re just as important in this story. By keeping your vaccines up to date, you’re helping guard the fire for everyone. You’re part of the shield that keeps sparks from turning into bigger flames.
So before flu season kicks in, check with your healthcare provider and make sure both you and your loved ones are covered. The more we work together, the brighter and steadier the fire glows.
