FREE FLU CLINIC

Both
flu shots and flu mist are available. Get
vaccinated before the flu season starts.  

The
Center for Disease Control recommends that everyone 6 months of age and up get
a yearly flu vaccine. At this time, there is very little influenza activity.
Flu season typically starts in October and can last through May.  

Vaccination
of high risk persons is especially important to decrease their risk of severe
flu illness.

People
at high risk of serious flu complications include young children, pregnant
women, people with chronic health conditions like asthma, diabetes or heart and
lung disease and people 65 years and older.

Vaccination
also is important for health care workers, and other people who live with or
care for high risk people to keep from spreading flu to high risk people.

Children
younger than 6 months are at high risk of serious flu illness, but are too
young to be vaccinated. People who care for them should be vaccinated instead.
