TRANSYLVANIA PUBLIC HEALTH

EVERYONE,
EVERYWHERE,
EVERYDAY.

There’s a lot of illness going around right now. You can take steps – like covering your cough and washing your hands – to help prevent respiratory illnesses like the flu, colds, RSV, and COVID-19. Be sure to get plenty of rest and eat healthy foods to keep your immune system strong. And if you are sick, please stay home until you’ve been fever free for 24 hours so you don’t spread more germs.

Learn more about flu and how to prevent the spread here: Flu Update, January 2025

We also keep Transylvania County safe by offering immunizations, screening for health concerns, encouraging good nutrition, and more.

BEAUTIFUL,
THRIVING &
CULTURALLY RICH.

LET’S KEEP IT THAT WAY.

PROTECTING OUR COMMUNITY.

Transylvania County is known for its natural beauty, making it a popular tourist destination and more importantly, a place for families to grow and thrive. We’d venture to say that without clean water, a healthy population, and a well-immunized community, this wouldn’t be so.

Transylvania Public Health is committed to keeping our county beautiful and its people healthy. We’re a quiet but steady partner in economic development, an outspoken player in community health and promotion, and a valued member of any health crisis or disaster preparedness team.
