Announcing Seasonal Flu Vaccine Clinics

Once again, Bayshore Pediatrics is offering the seasonal influenza vaccine (this is not the same as the H1N1 flu vaccine) to all patients.  Bayshore Pediatrics has strongly encouraged all children 6 months and older to receive an annual influenza vaccine for the past 7 years (long before the CDC recommendations).  The seasonal flu vaccine provides protection to children during a time when illness is often on the rise.  We will begin influenza vaccination clinics starting as early as September 1st for nasal influenza vaccine and September 15th for injectable influenza vaccine.  To find more information about the seasonal flu and making an appointment, check out our website at BayshorePediatrics.com under Spotlight or call our office.   You will want to call our office early to get the best appointment times – evening and Saturday appointments are offered but go fast. 

Please call our office to speak with your pediatrician if you have questions about your child(ren) receiving the seasonal influenza vaccine.  For more information on the H1N1 flu vaccine, please see our other blog posts and check in frequently, we will be updating this frequently as information becomes available.
