With the flu season rapidly approaching, we are once again reminded by the CDC and other medical authorities that a flu shot can help reduce the incidence of and the effects of this potentially life-threatening disease. Each year as many as 60 million Americans contract influenza, more than 200,000 are hospitalized, and about 36,000 die from its effects. (Source: CDC) For more information about influenza consult the CDC's Influenza Page, the Pandemic Flu page, or your personal physician.
As a service to our members and their communities, CAI is partnering again this year with Care Dynamix to provide flu vaccination clinics at your community or business, saving your residents and employees the need to stand in the long lines common to most public flu shot clinics or to schedule a visit with their individual doctors. For the same price you would pay to go receive a vaccination at a doctors office or a public health clinic, Care Dynamix brings the service right to you in your community or office.
Check out our website for the 2007 Flu Clinic Registration kit. Registration can be completed through October and clinics will be scheduled beginning in late October and continuing through December.
