Dear fellow Hanoverians:
The Hanover Board of Health, in conjunction with the Hanover Visiting
Nurse Association, has scheduled their annual public flu clinics to be
held at the *Hanover Council on Aging*, 665 Center Street, Hanover:
Friday, October 12, 2012 11:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m.
Wednesday, October 17, 2012 5:30 p.m. – 7:30 p.m.
Please note:
Because of budget cuts across all departments, the Massachusetts
Department of Public Health is no longer able to provide free vaccine
to cities and towns except to those residents who are either
un-insured or under-insured (meaning their health plan will not cover
the cost of a flu shot).
The Board of Health has purchased an adequate supply of flu vaccine to
make up for the lesser amount received from the State. *** All persons
will be asked to present an insurance card (most insurance plans
welcome) and the insurance plan will cover the cost of the flu shot
***.
No one will be turned away on the basis of insurance eligibility.
The state is no longer able to provide Pneumonia or Tetanus vaccine
for the above reason.
Please remember to wear short sleeves.
If you require additional information, please call the Hanover Health
Office at (781) 826-4611 or e-mail health@hanover-ma.gov
.
