The flu season is upon us! Statistics show that the flu will cause up to 52,000 deaths in the U.S. this year. To help prevent this statistic from coming true we are having a flu shot clinic, sponsored by Hy-Vee’s Pharmacy, in the school cafeteria on Saturday September 9, after the 4:30 Mass and on Sunday September 10, after all Masses until 12:00PM. This year’s flu shot offers protection against both the seasonal; flu and H1N1 (swine flu). The shot is recommended for anyone at least 6 months old and especially for the elderly and those with medical conditions. There are no reservations necessary. The shot is free for those with Medicare or Medicaid . If you have private insurance Hy-Vee will bill your insurance for you. Refuse to catch the flu, take control and get your flu shot!
