Influenza shots are here
Sunday, October 14, 2007 at 2:37AM
We just had our first successful Saturday shot clinic of the season. We will continue these until we run out of vaccine. Our first day had over 200 shots given! No appointment needed. Just show up between 9AM and 12 noon. We'll add a notice on our site when we no longer have enough vaccine for walk-in clinics.
Remember all kids can benefit from a flu shot but the following groups are most at risk for complications from influenza:
* Children ages from 6 months old to 5th birthday
* People with asthma and other chronic lung diseases
* History of diabetes, heart problems or other chronic diseases
