Flu Season is Around the Corner, Schedule Flu Shots Starting September 8, 2009

The Pinal County Public Health Services District will begin providing flu shots to adults on Monday, September 28, 2009, by appointment only. For your convenience, and to ensure short wait times, we will begin scheduling appointments starting Tuesday, September 8, 2009 and continuing through the end of October. To schedule appointments for adults, please call toll free 1-888-431-1311, Monday through Friday between the hours of 8:00 am and 5:00 pm.

“This is not the H1N1 (swine) flu vaccine, which is not yet available. This is the adult dosage of the seasonal flu vaccine,” said Tom Schryer, Pinal County Public Health Director. “Health officials across the country are recommending the seasonal flu shot this year.” Click Here for H1N1 Information

Flu shots through the Pinal County Public Health Services District are just $15, a bargain compared to the cost of cold and flu medicines or trips to the doctor's office and missed work. If you are unable to schedule an appointment, the opportunity to receive a flu shot as a “walk-in” will be available on the following days after October 17, 2009:

Please be advised, all Pinal County Public Health Services District clinics will be closed Monday, October 12, Tuesday, November 3, Wednesday, November 11 and Thursday, November 26.

The Pinal County Public Health Services District is currently out of the 36 months to 18 years as well as the 18 years and older seasonal flu vaccine. However, all Public Health Clinics have the 6 months through 35 months vaccine available. Children can receive a flu shot without an appointment at their local Pinal County Public Health clinic pending vaccine availability. That information will be posted on the toll free Pinal County Information Hotline toll at 1-866-763-7252 as it becomes available.

In order to reduce that chance of catching the flu this season, the Public Health Department recommends frequent hand washing using soap and warm water for 30 seconds. If you do become ill, it is important to stay home to help prevent spreading the illness to others. For more information on influenza and vaccinations, please call the Health District hotline at 1-866-763-7252.

The number to call for appointments is 1-888-431-1311.
