The common cold spreads across local communities in Beverly, and elsewhere in the state of Massachusetts, each year. While many patients get a flu shot to prevent the influenza virus, there is no vaccine available for the common cold. That is because colds are caused by a rhinovirus that does not have any current vaccine that is manufactured.
Since the cold can infect patients rapidly, it helps to visit AFC Urgent Care Beverly to get symptoms treated ASAP. When patients have a cold they can experience many symptoms that impact their daily lives. Sneezing, coughing, and fever may cause patients to miss work and experience significant discomfort. In rare situations, a cold could lead to other healthcare concerns in vulnerable patients.
