Warren County Begins Seasonal Flu Shot Clinics
The Warren County Health Department is holding seasonal flu shot clinics during a two-week stretch this month.

Health officials say the best protection against the seasonal flu is to get vaccinated every year, starting when the shots become available. Residents can either schedule an appointment for a shot at the Warren County Health Department or visit one of the five seasonal flu shot clinics in Monmouth and the surrounding area.

The first clinic is Tuesday (October 6) at the Strom Center in Monmouth from 9 to 11:30 a-m and 1 to 3 p-m. Another clinic in Monmouth, scheduled for Saturday (October 10), will be at the 1st Street Armory from 9 to 11 a-m and 1 to 3 p-m.

The Roseville Friendship Center is holding a clinic next Tuesday (October 13) from 9 to 11 a-m. The Strom Center in Monmouth will be the site of another clinic on October 15th from 9 to 11:30 a-m and 1 to 3 p-m. The last seasonal flu shot clinic in the county is October 21st at the Kirkwood Village Center from 9:30 to 11:30 a-m.

The cost for a flu shot is $25 and Medicare Part B and Medicaid cards will be accepted. Pneumonia shots are also available for $45.
