I will be at the Food Bank in San Augustine (Senior Citizens Center) giving flu and pneumonia vaccine on Wednesday, Nov. 9th from 8:15 am until 10:30 am.  Then I will go to the Broaddus Food Bank at The First Baptist Church in Broaddus that same day from 11am until 1pm.

 

 

 

The flu vaccine should be taken by anyone that is over the age of 6 months old.  However, I will not be administering to anyone younger than age 4  years.  This is a yearly vaccine and should be taken every year beginning in September.

 

 

 

The pneumonia vaccine should be taken only by people that are at high risk or 65 years of age or older.  High risk would include smokers, COPD, Heart Disease, Diabetes, HIV/AIDS, Autoimmune Disease, Asthma, Chronic Bronchitis, Alcoholism, Cancer. Organ Transplants, etc. 

 

 

 

Vaccine will be given to people who are not insured with any healthcare insurance.

 

 

 

Thanks,

 

Ann
