Clatsop County Public Health Department is offering H1N1 flu vaccination clinics this week and next week for anyone 6 months of age and older.
The clinics are scheduled for Wednesday, Jan. 6 and Wednesday, Jan. 13 at the health department office at 820 Exchange St., Astoria. Both clinics run from 1 to 4 p.m., and are offered by appointment only ? call (503) 325-8500 to schedule a visit.
While incidents of H1N1 “swine” flu infection have generally declined across Oregon and the rest of the country since peaking in November, the strain remains in the population, and health officials still recommend people receive the H1N1 vaccine.
