It’s that time of the year, in Texas, when we grab some tissue, cough syrup, and Vic's vapor rub for your chest because flu season has finally made its debut and it’s spreading across the state. This extremely contagious virus is by far one of the most annoying episodes Texas goes through during the winter season. I don’t know anybody who doesn’t hate a stuffy nose, fever, and cold chills.
