Face the State: Low Immunization Rates

Immunize Nevada, Walgreens and the Nevada Wolf Pack are hosting a free flu vaccine clinic before the Nevada Wolf Pack Men's Basketball game begins this Saturday, from 2 p.m. through half-time.

Vaccinations are available for attendees ages 7 years and older on a first come, first served basis. People with insurance cards should bring them. Flu vaccination, either by shot or nasal spray, is your best chance at not getting the flu, and Nevada has many options for no-cost flu vaccinations.

For those who can't make Saturday's clinic, a list of locations in the community providing flu vaccinations is available at https://influencenevada.org/healthcare-providers/

For details about flu vaccine, statistics, flu prevention strategies and vaccination clinics, follow Immunize Nevada on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn and Pinterest, or visit www.influencenevada.org.
