Flu Vaccination Clinic Today and Next Monday

Reminder--
A walk-in flu vaccination clinic is provided today by the McHenry County Department of Health at Woodstock Library, 414 W. Judd Street,  Woodstock. No apointments are needed. The cost is $30. Medicaid and Medicare Part B accepted.

McHenry County Department of Health (MCDH) will provide walk-in flu vaccinations for adults and children aged 9 and over at McHenry Township, 3703 N Richmond Road, Johnsburg, on Monday, November 29 from 3pm-6pm.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends everyone aged 6 months and older get a flu shot. The vaccine supply is plentiful this year and only requires one shot. Even if you’re healthy, you can get sick and spread the flu. For individuals with chronic illnesses such as asthma, diabetes, and COPD, the flu can make these health conditions worse, causing serious complications which may require hospitalization. To reduce the spread of influenza, it is important to cover your cough, wash your hands and stay home if you’re sick.

If you don’t have a regular doctor, MCDH has made it easy to get your flu shot at these walk-in clinics. For more information, visit www.mcdh.info or call 815-334-4510.
