You have the power to protect those who can’t protect themselves this flu season.
The Vinton Family Medical Clinic will be having a walk-in flu vaccination clinic this Saturday, November 3rd, from 8 am-Noon. Please feel free to walk-in or call to schedule an appointment ahead of time at 319-472-6300.
Virginia Gay urges everyone to get their flu vaccination before the peak flu season. Influenza is a contagious respiratory disease that can lead to serious illness, hospitalization, or even death. Last year 80,000 children, adolescents, adults and seniors lost their lives to influenza-related causes.
You can also #FightTheFlu for yourself and those around you by remembering the 3 C’s of Flu Fighting:
Cover your coughs and sneezes
Contain germs by staying home when ill
Clean your hands with soap and water
Be sure to contact your health care provider or the Benton County Public Health Department at (319) 472-6360 if you have questions or concerns regarding the flu or flu vaccinations.
Join us and be a Flu Fighter this year!
