There will be a FREE flu vaccine clinic happening in Warwick soon.
Here’s some important information about the FREE flu vaccine clinic:
• Register online at www.schoolflu.com to schedule an appointment.
• Online registration is required to ensure the availability of the vaccine.
• Insurance information will be collected, but the vaccine is FREE whether you have insurance or not.
The flu is a serious, highly contagious, and sometimes deadly disease. Catching the flu means missing days of work and school. You might even have to spend time in the hospital. Don’t take the risk — the flu vaccine is your best protection against the flu.
