Sandy Shuckers, health and wellness coordinator, visited the meeting of the Centre County commissioners recently to reveal the dates and times for the free flu shot clinics at local senior centers.
‘Mount Nittany donates all the supplies,’ Shuckers said. ‘There is absolutely no cost. There is no bill to Medicare, insurance companies or you. It’s truly a free flu shot clinic.’
Shuckers said influenza usually strikes Pennsylvania in March or April, so November is the perfect time for the inoculation.
Shots will be provided to pre-registered residents ages 60 and older.
