The North Shore Health Department will have an H1N1 Flu Immunization Clinic on Wednesday, November 4, from 3:30-6:30 PM.  The clinic will be held at the Fox Point Police Department, 7300 N.

Following CDC guidelines, this clinic is for the following people ONLY:

• Healthy Children Age 2-5
• Healthy People Under Age 50 Who Are Household Members and Caregivers of Children Under 6 Months of Age

This clinic will have NASAL MIST VACCINE ONLY.  It will be available as long as supplies last and we expect to have adequate supply for this clinic.  The Department does not have any injectable vaccine at this time.  No seasonal flu or other immunizations will be available at this clinic.

PLEASE NOTE:

The North Shore Health Department is following the most current guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and the State of Wisconsin regarding eligible target populations for the H1N1 vaccine.  We will offer vaccine to the general population as soon as more vaccine is available and we get the go-ahead from these authorities. 

The H1N1 vaccine is available at no cost.
