Free Flu Shots

West Valley City and SelectHealth to Offer Free Flu Shots

Free flu shots for anyone while supplies last at City Hall
Wednesday, December 3, 2008 3:00 p.m. – 6:00 p.m.

West Valley City has partnered with SelectHealth and Community Nursing Services to offer a free flu shot clinic to the community. On December 3, from 3:00 – 6:00 p.m., the flu shots will be available at West Valley City Hall (3600 South Constitution Blvd.) on a first come first served basis while supplies last. This clinic is open to the public.

The best way to prevent the flu is to get vaccinated, according to Meg Danielson, R.N., manager of Health and Wellness at SelectHealth. "Yearly flu vaccination can begin in early fall. But since the flu season often peaks in February, it isn’t too late to receive a flu shot up until January or February if you are unable to get one earlier," said Danielson.

SelectHealth will also hold a free clinic at Monroe Elementary (4450 West 3100 South) on Tuesday, December 2, 2008 from 4:30 p.m. – 7:00 p.m.
