Places to find the Flu Shot/ Young

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

I know in my little town, they have Flu Shot clinics various places. They have

some at grocery stores, at churches, and also at the Adult Day Care Center

located in the Hospital. So you might want to check those places out.

And usually PCP's will have a supply of shots, and you can also call your local

Hospital. Oh, I almost forgot, some of our Pharmacys have Flu Shot Days too.

Hope you find one, too bad you don't live in my little town, you could have my

Flu Shot, I am not getting one this year. Good Luck

Hugs,

Ann-Marie
