Dear Parent: Vernon County Health Department will be offering Influenza vaccine to all children and students free of charge in the La Farge School District on Thursday, October 22th, 2020. The Centers for Disease Prevention and Control (CDC) recommends that all individuals regardless of age receive the Influenza vaccine this year. The vaccine contains four strains, one of which is the H1N1, so protection will be available for the most prominent strains expected to appear in 2020-2021 flu season. A clinic has been planned for Thursday October 22nd, 2020. This year the Vernon County Health Department staff will utilize a mobile immunization clinic located in your schools parking lot. We will be on location from 7 am to 3 pm. In years past, nursing staff has assisted smaller children if needed, but due to COVID best practice directives, we will not be able to do this this year. If you child needs to be held, you will have to be present for your child to receive the vaccine. A vaccine information form is available on the school website or by calling the office. If you wish to be present for the vaccine, you are welcome to do so. If you have any further questions/concerns, please feel free to contact the La Farge School Nurse, Emily Oium, RN, BSN at 625-0122 or Vernon County Health Department. We look forward to seeing your child on Thursday October 22nd, 2020. It is very important that we protect your child from complications of Influenza.
