Every year, between 330 million and over 1.5 billion people worldwide fall ill with infections caused by influenza viruses. For most of them, despite acute symptoms, including high fever, the disease ends after about 7 days without major consequences. However, according to the World Health Organization, influenza viruses cause between 500 thousand and one million deaths worldwide every year. They also cause serious complications, such as: pneumonia and bronchitis, otitis media, or inflammation of the heart muscle and pericardium.
Doctors emphasize that vaccination is the most effective way to prevent infections and complications caused by influenza viruses.
In Poland, several hundred thousand to several million cases of flu are registered each year. There is still time to avoid it this time. According to specialists, vaccination against flu should be done every year, preferably at the turn of September and October. The time needed to develop immunity does not exceed 3 weeks. Flu most often attacks in winter - the peak incidence is recorded from January to March.
September greets us not only with cooler mornings but also a new chapter in the lives of many families. For children, especially those entering school for the first time, it's often a time full of emotions: curiosity, uncertainty, but also fear. How can we ensure that these first weeks aren't associated with stress, but with a good start?
The Kobierzyce Municipal Harvest Festival is coming soon, bringing a healthy dose of fun. On the weekend of August 23rd and 24th, we invite you to the Kobierzyce stadium, where, in addition to traditional harvest festival attractions, there will also be activities prepared by the NZOZ Twój Lekarz (Your Doctor Public Healthcare Facility) and the Health Promotion Foundation.
Who we are
In our work, we are guided by the idea of a family doctor who provides the patient with comprehensive care at all times, not only when they are ill. Our mission is to take care of the health of residents on a daily basis. We provide health education and promote prevention.
