Students in Stephen F. Austin State University’s DeWitt School of Nursing are inviting community members to “Say Boo to the Flu” with a free drive-through flu vaccination event Oct. 7-8 at the DeWitt School of Nursing located at 5707 North St.
In partnership with East Texas Community Health Services, fourth-semester nursing students in the community health course will administer the flu shots from noon to 6 p.m. Oct. 7 and from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Oct. 8. The event is open to the public, and health insurance is not required. Children 4 years of age and older are eligible for a vaccine.
“Please consider getting a flu shot to help reduce your risk of illness and minimize the agony of flu symptoms if you do become ill,” said Michelle Klein, clinical instructor for the School of Nursing.
