With Fayette County’s first confirmed flu case of the season in the books, the Lexington Health Department is offering flu shots ahead of the typical schedule.
Health Department Spokesman Kevin Hall says vaccines will be administered between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. this Wednesday. He says this isn’t a time of year most people think about getting a flu shot. “It’s almost 90 degrees outside here the last few days, so it’s not something you think of. Flu is a fall and winter illness,” said Hall. “But, it’s definitely here and it’s not too early to get a flu shot.”
Hall says there will be free flu shot clinics at two different sites this year. Those will be held October 20th from 4:00 p.m. until 7:00 p.m. at Consolidate Baptist Church on Russell Cave Road and at Southland Christian Church on Richmond Road.?
