Ultimate Family Flu Kit
Hello, World!
All opinions are my own in this post!
Welcome to 2022 a year of newfound opportunities and Fulfillment.
The kids manage to make it into the new year without any major illnesses, flu, flu-like symptoms, or trips to the hospital. You know what one kid or parent can do to the rest of the household. I spent my Christmas holiday isolated from family because I contracted covid-19 .With the new variant, Covid-19, and flu season in full swing, we need to take extra precautions. One thing the last two years has taught me is you can never be too prepared. I made a flu, Covid-19 emergency kit with some staple over-the-counter household things. It's a great way to fully prepare for any flu, cold and new outbreaks for the whole family.
