Flu shot clinic on Oct. 18

The Rock Island County Health Department will be offering flu shots for employees and students on Friday, Oct. 18, in Centennial Hall from 9 a.m.-2 p.m. Please enter through the back door of the building and exit through the front. This is a walk-in clinic and no appointment is necessary.

Individuals must bring the following items to the clinic:

• A copy of your insurance card (front and back)
• Completed consent form. Consent forms will be available at the clinic as well.

The consent form also includes a list of accepted insurance programs. It is recommended that you call the phone number on your insurance card to make sure the Rock Island County Health Department is in-network and that the flu vaccine is covered, especially if you have out-of-state insurance.

If you do not have insurance, or your insurance is not accepted, the cost is $66 for the shot payable by cash or check.
