Congratulations!

Thank you all for making this strange year’s Flu Shot Clinic a huge success.  We had over 160 vaccinations in the 3.5 hours and other than the first half hour of chaos because the ferry was late getting the nurses to the island, the flow smoothed out after that.  Thank you for your patience, patients!  The nurses all were most appreciative  of your thanks to them individually.  They told me they love to come here because everyone is so friendly and welcoming.  They made sure we were first on the list for flu clinics and had ordered the vaccine for us in early September so we were assured of enough. 

For those of you who did not get to our local clinic today, make sure you call your doctor or pharmacist ahead of your trip to the Big Island to confirm they can accommodate you.

And baskets of virtual roses to Merry Gooding, Nan Beals, Veronica Shelford and Claire Hess for the coffee service the Auxiliary provided.  Regulations for food service during Covid disallowed their usual fruit and baked goods but their creativity gave everyone chocolate covered cookies and other treats your mum would have normally frowned upon.

The TIVFD is grateful that you value our local annual flu shot clinic and the health of the community by attending.  Your donations to the Community Fund support this initiative.
