2017 Flu Shot Clinic Changes

This year VIHA is focussing on children for the annual flu shot drive, and is not putting on any community Flu Shot Clinics on Vancouver Island.  Instead, they are relying upon people to make an appointment with their physician or a pharmacist to receive the vaccination for the 2017/2018 Flu season.  Fees may apply. 

BUT DO NOT DESPAIR!  VIHA thinks Thetis Island is “special” and they will have their only community flu shot clinic here on our island this year for the 2017/2018 Flu Season.

Friday OCTOBER 20th at Forbes Hall. 

One little change from previous years though: 

CHILDREN & FAMILIES at 9:15 am. 

ADULTS at 9:45 to 10:45. 

Adults can come earlier than your start time, but children and families will be served first.  The VIHA nurses have to catch the ferry, so the Flu Shot Clinic ends at 10:45 because the VIHA  nurses will be out the door to catch the 10:50.  So no stragglers! 

As in the past, the terrific TIVFD Auxiliary will be delighting you with their coffee service goodies while you wait the required ten minutes after your inoculation.

We hope you will support this Flu Shot Clinic, which shows VIHA there is a need for community medical services on our island.  This Clinic is made possible by your volunteer fire fighters and the TIVFD Auxiliary and supported financially by the Thetis Island Community Fund.
