Mayo announces seasonal flu vaccine available

Filed under: Health — Breaking News @ 9:28 am

Mayo Clinic press release:

Mayo Clinic today announced it has a limited supply of seasonal flu vaccine available for Mayo primary care patients. Mayo is accepting appointments for all children ages 6 months to 35 months old, and for healthy children and adults, ages 3 to 49 years old, who are not pregnant. For all other patients, we anticipate additional shipments of seasonal flu vaccine later this month.

Patients may call their Mayo primary care provider to schedule an appointment. Children age 8 and under who are receiving seasonal flu vaccine for the first time this year need two doses of vaccine separated by at least four weeks. Caregivers may schedule appointments for the second dose for all children, 6 months to 35 months old; or for any healthy child 3 to 8 years old.
