With Manitoba health care professionals stating the seasonal flu is circulating at a higher level than normal, this weekend is a great opportunity to get kids vaccinated against the virus.
The Ma-Mow-We-Tak Friendship Centre is holding a children’s vaccine clinic where the flu shot and the COVID-19 booster will be offered.
Kids six months and older can get vaccinated if they’re not up to date on either vaccine.
It will be at the centre’s multipurpose room tomorrow from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Manitoba Health stated in its weekly update that children under the age of five are among the most at risk from the flu virus, but only about ten per cent of children and youth under the age of 18 have gotten the flu shot.
