APS is partnering with the Tri-County Health Department to offer immunizations to targeted groups who are considered at high risk for H1N1 influenza. The targeted groups are:

 

• children and young adults from 6 months to 24 years of age
• pregnant women
• adults who care for infants less than 6 months old
• health care workers
• adults from 25 to 64 years of age who have chronic health conditions like asthma or diabetes

This vaccine will be available at no charge to those who are in the targeted groups attending a school sponsored clinic. Identification or proof of chronic disease will not be required. Written consent from a parent or legal guardian will be required for anyone under 18 years of age. Children who are 10 and under will need to have two injections at least 28 days apart. This vaccine protects against H1N1 influenza only, not seasonal flu.

If you are among the high risk groups, or have children or other family members who are considered to be at high risk for H1N1 influenza, I encourage you to participate in this public health event. 

We will continue to monitor and track absence rates due to flu-like symptoms. Please continue to adhere to previously shared recommendations to prevent the spread of illness. For further information, including an FAQ, visit the APS Web site at
