2007 FLU VACCINE UPDATE
We are pleased to inform you that our flu vaccine
has arrived. Our recommendation is that anyone
wanting to avoid the flu should receive the flu
vaccine. This is especially true for all children
with chronic diseases, and children under age 3.
We will be holding flu vaccine clinics on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons.
Children receiving the flu vaccine for the first
time need a booster shot one month after the first
vaccine is given. Children with known egg allergy
should not receive the flu vaccine. No co-payment
is required for this visit. Please call our office
at 508-697-8116 and we will be happy to book an
appointment for your child. Best wishes for a flu-free
winter!
