Why not get your flu shot?

With the sun blazing overhead it may not feel like it, but we’re on the cusp of flu season once again. Getting the flu is a truly miserable experience, but it’s entirely avoidable with just a quick jab. Austin Public Health has several convenient clinics scattered around the city offering free flu vaccines for kids and adults. The next clinic will be held on Tuesday, Oct. 15, from 9 a.m.-noon, at the Blackland Neighborhood Center, 2005 Salina St. You can find a schedule for flu clinics at different locations around the city over the next few months here.
