\"Flu-Shot-logo\"<\/a>SSM Health is offering free flu vaccinations across the St. Louis region Saturday, October 7, 2017, from 8 a.m. \u2013 noon in an effort to reduce influenza risk for children, adults and their families.<\/p>\n

According to the Centers for Disease Control, an annual seasonal flu vaccination is the best way to reduce chances of being diagnosed with influenza or spreading it to others.<\/p>\n

All SSM Health flu clinics are for those age 9 and above. SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children\u2019s Hospital is the only location that will vaccinate ages 6 months and above.<\/p>\n

For all of the flu clinics, vaccinations are available by injection only. There will not be a preservative-free option. Pregnant women are advised to obtain a flu shot from their primary care physician. No appointments are necessary. Participants should wear loose-fit clothing. Flu shots will be given on a first-come, first-served basis and are available while supplies last.<\/p>\n
