In November, Huron Perth Public Health (HPPH) will hold COVID-19 vaccine clinics for children 11 years old and younger. Flu shots will also be offered at these clinics. It’s important to get vaccinated to protect ourselves and others from getting very sick now that respiratory illness season is underway. Vaccines help our bodies fight off these illnesses, which can spread easily and make people of all ages, especially young children and the elderly, seriously ill.
Appointments are required for these clinics and can be made at www.ontario.ca/book-vaccine.
People aged 12 and older can get their COVID-19 and flu vaccines at their local pharmacy or with their family doctor.
