Flu Vaccine Clinics Fall 2023

Its that time of year again! We recommend everyone 6 months of age and older get their shot anytime now. Flu activity in our area usually peaks around November. So "Flu before boo"  as we like to say, in other words: get your flu shot before Halloween.

One small change, if your child has an egg allergy, they can now get the flu vaccine in one of our clinics. They no longer need an appointment. This is based on the CDC reviewing the frequency of allergic reactions to flu vaccine and finding that they occur in approximately 1.3 per 1 million flu vaccines given. Very, very rare!

All kids need one annual flu shot. However, if your child is less than 9 years old and has not had 2 prior flu vaccines in their lifetime, then they need a booster of this year's flu vaccine. The booster dose is the same as the initial dose, just 28 days later. This has always been the case, nothing new here, just a reminder.

Please note that this year all clinics will be in the office and by appointment only. Please call us to schedule an appointment.

You must be an established patient of Willows who has been seen in the office and will need to show a valid insurance card at the time of your appointment. Before your appointment, please print and fill out the 2023 Injectable Flu Administration Sheet. If someone other than a parent/guardian is accompanying your child for the flu vaccine, we require a signed note with parental permission to give the vaccine.
