Getting a flu shot and watching for fever with a digital medical thermometer are among the ways Americans can stay on top of their health this flu season.
Beverly Hills, CA (PRUnderground) December 23rd, 2019
Nearly 61,000 people have been severely affected from the flu last season in the United States and even more than that the previous season, according to government statistics. These alarming numbers mean it is more important than ever to get a flu shot and stay vigilant for flu symptoms, including fever.
During flu season and year-round, a well-made digital health thermometer like the MOBI DualScan ULTRA PULSE Talking Ear and Forehead Digital Thermometer can be a true lifesaver, aiding in early diagnosis.
December is not too late for Americans to get a flu shot and ensure that they are protected. Later in the flu season, media reports about illness increases; which results in vaccine shortages.
An injection lasts about 6 months, offering protection throughout most or all of the flu season, according to experts.
During the 2018-2019 flu season,42 million cases were reported, and more than three-quarter of a million people were hospitalized for the illness or its complications.
Seasonal allergies are common this time of year, and usually cause low-grade fever or no increase in body temperature at all. A digital health thermometer can help you differentiate these common allergies from the flu by detecting a fever or flu symptoms ahead of time.
The MOBI Ultra Pulse digital thermometer allows concerned Americans or their caregivers to check for fever using the recommended in-ear technique or the non-invasive forehead method. This method may be more accepted by babies and won’t wake a sleeping child. The unit features a large, bright readout as well as a fever indicator and built-in flashlight. It also offers fingertip heart rate monitoring.
“The goal of MOBI home and health monitoring products is to help consumers stay safe and healthy,” said MOBI CEO David Naghi. “It’s never more crucial to keep an eye on your body temperature than during flu season, when the potential for flu infection is all around you.”
Detecting flu early and getting medical treatment right away can lessen the severity and duration of the illness.
The MOBI Ultra Pulse thermometer is available at major online and brick-and-mortar retailers, including Walmart, Target, and Amazon. Learn more at getmobi.com.
