davis_square'Tis that time of year--where the community members protect themselves from flu, and protect the most vulnerable members of our community, by keeping the flu away as much as possible.
Flu is not trivial to kids with leukemia, or seniors in fragile health. Or many other folks in challenging medical situations. My nephew battled leukemia for several years, and relied on the herd to keep infectious disease away from him during that rough time. He's in remission and back to full vax status, but for years I worried. I still worry for the other kids like him, though.
So get to your doctor, your pharmacy, or try these free clinics from the city. Free Flu Vaccine Schedule links to the city web site. Will post the full text here below the cut.
