The demand for Flu Vaccines has significantly decreased. We will not be holding any further Flu Vaccine Clinics unless there is an increase in demand for Flu Vaccines. If your child has not received either the Seasonal Flu Vaccine OR the H1N1 Flu Vaccine, please make a nurse visit appointment for either vaccine or request a vaccine at any scheduled office visit.
____________________________
Don’t forget your Seasonal Flu Vaccine!
Did you know that the H1N1 Flu Vaccine does NOT protect your child from the Seasonal Flu? Every year between 5-20% of the population suffers from the Seasonal Flu; young children are especially at risk for complications from the Seasonal Flu. The best way to prevent the Seasonal Flu is by getting the Seasonal Flu Vaccine.
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and your child’s medical home, Chapel Hill Pediatrics and Adolescents, all recommend that your child receive BOTH the Seasonal Flu Vaccine and the H1N1 Vaccine. You can call today to make a nurse visit appointment for either vaccine or ask your nurse or doctor at your next regularly scheduled office visit.
