Some flu vaccine has arrived…please read

We will be having our first drop-in flu vaccine clinic this Wednesday, October 22nd from 3:00pm to 7:00 pm

At this time the only flu vaccine we have available is the Flu Mist for patients 2 years of age and older.  This is an intra-nasal vaccine and we cannot give this to children with the any of the following health issues:

an allergy to eggs

history of chronic medical conditions such as heart disease, diabetes or asthma

any episodes of wheezing or bronchospasm in the past 12 months

if they have received Varivax or MMR in the past 4 weeks.

If you are not sure if your child can receive this vaccine please feel free to call our office and  discuss this with your child’s pediatrician.  This clinic is for established patients of PWG only, and only while supplies last.  We are expecting more shipments of flu vaccine later this month, we will keep you posted via our website and facebook page.
