(From Springfield Public Schools)
Springfield Public Schools, in cooperation with Jordan Valley Community Health Center, Springfield-Greene County Health Department, CoxHealth and Mercy Springfield, will offer seasonal flu vaccine free of charge to any SPS student as supply allows. Children will receive the Inactivated Influenza (Flu Shot) Vaccine with written parental consent.
CDC recommends everyone six months of age and older should get a flu vaccine every season. People should begin getting vaccinated soon after flu vaccine becomes available, ideally by October, to ensure that as many people as possible are protected before flu season begins. However, as long as flu viruses are circulating in the community, it’s not too late to get vaccinated.
